FIRED Apprentice star Christopher Farrell will find out next month whether he is to be charged with fraud.

The former marine is currently on police bail pending a decision from the Crown Prosecution Service.

The 28-year-old mortgage broker was arrested in August, and it is understood the allegation relates to making a false representation via cheque or card.

Christopher, a former Royal Marines Commando, was the latest contestant to be dropped from TV’s The Apprentice following a bungled crisp sales task.

The former military man, from Cheshire, was told he lacked the spark of genius required by business guru Lord Alan Sugar.

He was shown the door after his team, Synergy, lost the task to sell gourmet British crisps in Germany.

Synergy lost a crucial sale when they chose to book an afternoon appointment with a major hotel chain, only for rivals Apollo to visit them first thing in the morning and corner the market.

He was called into the board room with project manager Chris Bates, 23, an investment banker, and fellow candidate Jamie Lester, 28, an overseas property developer.
