Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two Northern Ireland (Analogue)Latest broadcast: on BBC Two England

Six young people compete to win a job with a top UK sports agency.

The five remaining contenders learn how difficult it is to prevent the media publishing negative stories about clients. At morning briefing the contenders are told that this week's challenge will test their communication skills, particularly amongst famous footballing faces, the first being Chelsea's Florent Malouda. They are then taken to meet Liverpool star Ryan Babel and West Bromwich Albion's Gianni Zuiverloon and Ryan Donk for dinner at a top restaurant.

Over dinner, mentor Tahli Grobbelaar tests their ability to be discreet. When two undercover journalists set about digging for a story, will our contenders keep their clients' confidence? All is revealed at a stormy press conference the next morning, and the worst-performing contender has to leave the show. Show less
