The sister of former Apprentice contestant Stuart Baggs has said the family's world has been 'shattered' by his sudden death. Baggs, 27, who ran a communications firm on the Isle of Man, was found dead at his home in Douglas at about 09:00 BST on Thursday.
In a Facebook tribute, his sister Charlotte Baggs described him as 'the biggest character'. A police spokeswoman said there was nothing 'to indicate that his death is criminally suspicious' and that inquiries into the cause of death would continue.
When he appeared on the BBC One show in 2010 aged 21, Plymouth-born Baggs was its youngest contestant. He became a cult favourite with his catchphrases and his description of himself as 'Baggs the brand'.
Past and present stars of the show took to social media to express their shock. Lord Sugar said: 'Terrible news Stuart Baggs has died. My sincere condolences to his family and friends RIP one of the stand out characters of the apprentice.'
Countdown host Nick Hewer, who left his role as Lord Sugar's adviser this year, tweeted: 'So sad to hear of Stuart Baggs' death. Condolences to his family. He will be remembered with affection by all who knew him on Apprentice 6.'
