Thomas Henry Skinner (born February 1991) is an English businessman and television personality from London. He rose to fame appearing in series 15 of The Apprentice, where he was fired by Alan Sugar in week 9. Known for his strong Cockney accent and "bosh" catchphrase, he has since appeared on other shows including 8 Out of 10 Cats and Celebrity MasterChef.

At the time of his appearance on The Apprentice, Skinner was the owner of The Fluffy Pillow Company, selling beds, mattresses and a memory foam pillow of his own design.
