Anyone watching Dragons' Den on BBC2?

[WideWebWitch]

I'm enjoying it and (and quite fancy Dougal Ballontyne or however you spell it) they were right about the chair tonight.

[shazronnie]

I'm finding it surprisly entertaining, but i think the woman is very harsh with lips like a cat's bum!

[tallmummy]

Forgot to watch can't be arsed to move now, tv in other room. Love Peter Jones really tall, lovely to look at and loaded! Is that shallow?

[Lio]

Have videoed it - I know this is ridiculous, but I am waiting to go into labour and thought I could watch it between contractions (yes, pg brain very addled).

[Gizmo]

Hey, Waswondering, do you mean concrete canvas?

I'm not sure, I think they're still looking for funding, although there's always a problem with finding funding for products which are largely aimed at crisis management in the developing world, IME.

lio, I watched toy story or soemthign while in labour at 3am in the morning, while everyone else was in bed.

I was pmsl at bannatyne on that exercise armchair. I did feel a bit bad for the guy who made it, because it was obvious they were takign the piss, but it was soo funny!

I like Duncan Bannatyne too. Good looks, heaps of cash and a great sense of humour, what mroe could a girl want!

[Lio]

Still not in labour, may yet have to watch it under normal circumstances

[Tutter]

love it.

think peter jones's nouveau mansion is rather unpleasant

[brimfull]

oh no ,duncan bannatyne seems a wanker to me.Always giving the evil eye.Give me the tall one or the yummy aussie anytime.

[NedKelly1978]

tall one or yummy aussie?
is the nwe one aussie - richard something or other?

[Spagblog]

I loved that egg idea. I want one!

Poor bloke with the armchair gym, he was so sweet.
That lady with the jowls is frightening though

[Tutter]

tall one (peter jones) loves himself

[brimfull]

I think they all loves themselves don't they.Large ego ,very driven ,clever = rich fu**er!

[NedKelly1978]

don't liek pj. I dont think I have ever seen him nvest. He jsut btiches at everyone.

[moonshine]

I love this and have a bit of a thing for Duncan B. He comes across as arrogant but 'dirrrty' iyswim. But who is that Aussie sunburnt
gnome?

[brimfull]

lol at sunburnt gnome!

[Mo2]

Thought the down-to-earth truck-wash man last night was so clearly one of the best - knew his stuff, had tested the market and wasn't willing to be beaten down by them all. Also admire him chosing the 'right' partners in the end, rather than being swayed by the difference in equity stake. Good for him.

[WideWebWitch]

The picnic bag woman hadn't done any research had she? She should have been able to talk about the size of her potential market, what share she wanted, how she was going to grow her brand but no, she just wanted £10k profit after THREE years! I thought they said she'd worked in the City before, all I can say is er, as wot, exactly?

[Wordsmith]

Oh shit! I missed it again. Must remember to set the video next week

[Mo2]

Agree WWW - but I actually think she was daft not to accept scarey woman's offer, 'cos I bet then then product WOULD have been a success.... can see it now, being sold thru Lakeland, and all MNers getting all excited about it..

[Gizmo]

I agree, Mo2, car wash man passed my acid test for a pitch, which is: 'why on earth are you asking these guys for the money? This is such a cast iron proposition any bank would be happy to lend on it.' Knew his market backwards, had made money in it already, and importantly just came across as a really credible guy.

Had obviously spent time working out his negotiating position when the dragons started biting, too. Textbook stuff
