APPRENTICE bitch Katie Hopkins makes another horrid show of herself - in an early Big Brother pilot.

Katie starred in an unscreened dummy run in 2000 before the series made its TV debut.

Even then the snobby blonde was so desperate to grab the limelight and find fame that she stripped and photocopied her private parts.

One housemate revealed: "We had to make wire models of ourselves and include photocopies of our body parts.

"Katie took her clothes off and lay on the photocopier with no qualms at all. She went straight for the more intimate areas of her anatomy and got down to work."

The ex-Army girl, then 24, is also seen shamelessly baring her backside. In other clips she appears to swig from a giant bottle of cider and grins as she clutches two bottles of wine.

Yet on The Apprentice, catty Katie sneered at fellow contestant Adam Hosker: "Your best friends are Mr Pinot and Mr Grigio."

Astonishingly, the fellow Big Brother contestant claimed Katie was likeable seven years ago.

They said: "She was popular, sweet and very good fun. There are two sides to Katie - the driven, ambitious side and the side that just wanted to get back to her dogs."

On the film of their two-week pilot, Katie is shown fixing one of the wire effigies, playing in the garden and helping with chores. She is also caught in mundane activities such as brushing her teeth and snoozing.

By the time the show hit TV, she had been axed for the likes of scheming Nick Bateman - who, like her, became a national hate figure.

Mum-of-two Katie, 32, of Exeter, has become despised for her snide barbs behind the backs of other Apprentice hopefuls and for boasting about flings with three married men. Tonight she appears on Channel 4 show 8 Out Of 10 Cats.
