Dragons Den

[Hannibal smith]

I love the program but as for Deborah Meaden - A bulldog licking piss off a stinging nettle springs to mind.

 

[Blackadder]

Seriously thought, this is one of the best tv programs on at the moment. Good old BBC.

Agreed

The three programs that are "must see" for me at the moment are
(In no particular order)

Lost
Dragons Den
The Apprentice (Donald Trump version at the moment - on late but that's what Sky Plus is for).

The battery charged Golf Trolley market is huge, especially among the older generation of golfer trust me, my father in law has one and i think its a good idea for sure.
Golf has a massive market which is ever growing.
Evertime i go round his place the battery is sitting on the side somewhere getting charged so leaving it in the back of the motor has to be a good thing.

So do they buy their own cart and store it at the clubhouse then?

 

[Rangdo]

yer but they all rich wankers

Yeah, but my point is that the Aussie guy makes it interesting because he invests more regularly rather than just no, no, no all the time and when he does turn things down he is honest and gives a good explanation rather than Banatine's "It's rubbish, you're wasting my time" arrogant bullshit.

 

[solly]

Zippydeduvet what was that all about ..... they made short work of that half wit

 

[Blackadder]

I can't understand why anyone would want Bannatyne investing in their business?

He usually pushes for 50% of of the business and I'd guess that he's a hard bloke to work with!

I reckon she'd only be too happy to invest in a company selling specialist vibrators. (you know the industrial strength ones that come with their own UPS)

Richard is by far the richest of the dragons and the happiest to take a bit of a punt

Love the show (watch it again on BBC.co.uk...!) but I think they should change the predictable format as it would make it more fun guessing whether they are going to invest or not

Your not a golfer are you.

Yes they have there own trolleys, which they take home and bring back after each game.

 

[Wozza]

I think they paid for the websites the poker guy had and there potential rather than the initial concept he came with.

Yeah, two websites with shit names... with 50,000 hits. Woooooo!

Not on your life!
So were they refering to electric golf TROLLEYs then because I'm sure the guy was saying CARTs. Thats why I was wondering why people took the batteries home as surely they hire the carts.

Is he ? Peter Jones is worth well over £300M so what's his value then ?

 

[Mustela Furo]

Christ - if those websites are worth ~$150k then what is NSC worth !!!?

 

[Moshe Gariani]

not sure of the figure but he's apparently had 50 successful businesses and on his BBC profile video thing he talks about getting the world's biggest ever personal take of some sort from a deal so I'm guessing its quite a lot...

 

[Wozza]

Not much really. Hits (page impressions) aren't really that important - the key is the number of unique visitors.

I agree with you there. Peter Jones is particularly nausiating.

My main gripe with the programme is that it's format is stacked against the little fella. Take last night - the Scottish dragon retracted his offer to the poker because pokerman hadn't asked him about HIS own brewery empire. That's not quite how it would play out in the real world if you had four indpendent dragons each competing to invest.

I know. It was really funny. He was like a spoilt child when he withdrew his offer. "You didn't ask about me so I'm out. Huff".
The thing was that the woman promoted herself to him to swing it her way and just because Banatine could see he was going to lose out he backed down to try to save face and made himself look a bigger tosser in the process

Peter Jones

If I was pitching my idea to him I'd probably end up chining him. Always Patronising and always says the same thing 'There's nothing stopping me copying your idea and doing it better' I haven't seen him invest in anything this series.

I really would love it if he went bankrupt.

 

[desprateseagull]

would have been 100,000 hits if the female dragon wsnt naked..

..shudder.
