Claims Apprentice 2023: Episode three – Travel claims fact or fiction?

Having navigated the data escape room in the last episode, the latest challenge sees the claims apprentices take part in an insurance-related gameshow.

As Kennedys’ very own Alan Sugar Claire Mulligan explains, each team will be given a set of genuine travel claims, and will then have to come up with their own believable – but false – ones too.

Over three rounds, the team that spots the most fictional claims will be crowned the winner.

So, with our audience in place and the quizmaster Jonathan Swift ready to tot up the scores, the big questions are:
• Who will pull the wool over the other team’s eyes with their lies?
• Which team is best at separating the fiction from the fact when it comes to travel claims?
• Also, have the teams been doing their homework on their rivals, which might help them to spot the odd porkie?

With Teams Aspire and Connect being helped by Kennedys’ experts Madeleine Bertrand and Michael Seggie, respectively, the Claims Apprentices only have an hour to get their stories straight and work out their strategies before entering the bright lights of the studio.

To find out who is best at calling the opposition’s bluff and telling believable but made-up stories, watch the episode now.
