Bosch Reportedly Blocks Thomas Skinner’s ‘Bosh’ Brand After Names Tribunal Ruling

The reported decision stems from Bosch’s challenge that a planned homeware line using “Bosh” was too close to its trademark.

  • Skinner had planned to sell bedding and candles under the catchphrase he popularized on The Apprentice in 2019 and uses frequently on social media.
  • The Sun first reported the action, with follow-up coverage in the Daily Mail, Daily Star and Evening Standard citing unnamed sources.
  • No on‑record statements from Bosch or representatives for Skinner were included in the articles, and outlets said they had sought comment.
  • The reports surface as Skinner competes on Strictly Come Dancing, with bookmakers adjusting his odds after the launch show.
