Ireland’s Apprentice star Breffny Morgan has landed a new job with top bookmaker Paddy Power just days after leaving the popular TV3 show.

Ireland’s biggest bookie was first to offer the Cork man a job as a body double after realising he bore a more than passing resemblance to himself.

With a recent move down under and partnership with the French PMU Paddy is finding it increasingly difficult to divide his time from one place to the next. Breffny’s role will include appearing at top race meetings and sporting events and standing in as Paddy Power when the boss man is away.

Paddy Power said, “I couldn’t believe my luck when I saw Breffny on the telly – it was the perfect solution. One of the biggest problems with my job is trying to be everywhere at once. With Breffny on board I can now be two places at once and spend a bit more time with Mrs Power!”
