Anyone seen any of the new series? Pretty good so far and fantastic to watch. 2 episodes in so far and both are pretty interesting including the submarine pitch where they wanted a record £1.45m for their company!

Debroah seems more laid back since she had her hair done a couple of series back! Theo has done really well and Duncan had nothing when he was 25 and now he's a pretty incredible buisness man. James Caan seems a bit hardcore but thank god he replaced Richard Farleigh who tried to worm his way into my old company flashing the cash and just being a one-man outfit with no backbone. The worst dragon ever was Rachel Enlaugh who came across as hopeless and clueless and went bust once and got bailed out by Jones and Bannatyne!

He is owner of Ryman. I respect him a lot. The whole programme is riveting tv, have to say.

Saw a documentary about the programme last year and it showed Dragon's Den around the world with the USA, Nigeria, South Africa versions etc.. and i have to say ours is the best and with the best people.

Evan Davies is good on the show too. Some ideas for tv are just brilliant. This works and the chemistry between the dragons is good. I enjoyed the spin off show profiling the dragons last year too.

The old bloke who was trying to sell the rotating wishing line was so nice. The Doogle (Duncan) comment had me in tears with laughter I'm not sure if it's all for show but the arguing between them all is funny. All trying to get 1 up on each other. I like them all but i think my fave has to be James Kahn. He just has something about him

Just hope that they do not change the format as that usually kills the show.

I wish they wouldn't call the pitchers 'entrepreneurs', 90% of them are just ordinary people with madcap ideas and hardly any business acumen
If they were real entreprenuers they would be on the show in the first place

There is a difference between someone with a good idea in business and someone who can turn the idea into a business. That's the point of the programme. The people with the ideas need a dragon for their business acumen as much as the cash to launch the idea as a business. IMO.
