New Dragons Den tonight

[Gromit]

Heaters guy made the right move.

Got his free advertising and will get a better deal off other equity firms who aren't worried about their image by being associated with an arogant person.

I'd have said to them "Alan Sugar is arogant, you wouldn't have given him the investment to start up Amstrad then?".

 

[Gromit]

Can I just say though the new heat haze effect thing they were using everywhere was getting on my tits and looked shit.

 

[murdok]

Made my laugh when the program started, i was like 'wft is it with all these stink lines coming from the dragons!'

 

[Jon-of-arc]

He may have millions but that doesn't mean that he has the connections or the access to the distribution network. A lot of the time, the value of the Dragon is not so much the cash as their phone book.

that whole paragraph sounds like something narator boy might say. If you arent writing for that show, you should be.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

oh gotcha. so Peter Jones defintitely was the right man then.

Peter's my favourite dragon.

He's just so wonderfully disdainful isn't he. He reminds me of someone's spoilt cat, sitting up on their mantelpiece and sneering vainly down at visitors.

 

[souljacker]

that makes sense, i bet it'll be in the shops by christmas.

I had an e-mail this morning from Expansys selling them.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Apparently once they've invested it still doesn't always work out, and once it goes to the actual due dilligence stage etc the Dragons pull out and so on...

 

[Gromit]

I had an e-mail this morning from Expansys selling them.

I notice that they've bought the unit price down to £78.

Must have cut their manufacturing costs somehow. Mass discount?

 

[electrogirl]

Wow miserly miser Duncan is on TOP Mr Grumpus form.

I liked Peter Jones's little cute joyface when he was drumming.

 

[Random One]

What is this poker dude on?!

 

[electrogirl]

He's a cunt. He's on cuntdrugs.

 

[Random One]

Ill accept your answer .dyu like me poker glasses

 

[DexterTCN]

LMAO Dunc and Theo

 

[fractionMan]

just turned on and they're all raving about this woman but I have no idea what she was proposing.

 

[electrogirl]

A thing that went through bricks. Or something. Boring product but it must've been good cos they all had boners popping out of their pinstripes over it.

very exciting though! good for her

 

[fractionMan]

lol

 

[Random One]

LOL

 

[DexterTCN]

Never seen the likes. Nice for the woman.

 

[N_igma]

I've seen them like that before, some product that if you plugged into your wall you could leave appliances on stand by and it would never waste electricity. Mind you I have never seen one of these in the shops so they must have fucked up somewhere along the line.

 

[electrogirl]

I saw them jizzing over a water purifier for underdeveloped countries once, they all did their good deed for the century by giving them all the money and only taking 1% of the profit. I can just see them now going home and having a right old wank over themselves 'oh I'm rich but I'm GOOD TOO Mummy, yes I am! I helped the poor people mummy!'

i think this is my favourite programme on the box at the moment. loved last night's.

anyway, does anyone know what it was with those two bald blokes - i missed their pitch and just saw the dragons having a go at them. (my) Peter looked really disgusted.

i liked how he had a go at that bloke who basically wanted them to fund his gambling habit

 

[electrogirl]

I don't remember foo

I love Peter too, did you see his cute little face when he was drumming? Oh and did you ever see him on that comic relief dancing show? He did some ballroom dancing and he was soooooooooooooo sweet!

I basically want to ride him on his yacht all night long.

 

[foo]

i'd ride something <hur hur>

actually, i don't fancy him (i don't think) i just smile at him and like him.

funny how i love this programme - cos i'm hardly business minded, and rarely get all the money/percentage stuff <whoosh!> i just like all the arguments and counter arguments, and chinny strokey stuff. and of course the mental inventors.

i was dead chuffed for that woman with the cavity invention thing.

 

[electrogirl]

Yeah that was cool, I liked it when they were being all sheepish and not wanting to bid for her first.

I don't understand ANY of the percentages, it always seems mental to me how much of their company they're willing to give up, I guess it's contacts and stuff. I also like it when they get angry.

Nah I'd definitely ride Pete.

 

[foo]

he's SO TALL!!! isn't he.

leccy, he'd lift you up like a little dolly, and place you on him.


and that's probably as far as i should take that little daydream.....

[Griff]

Loved the way James cut down those bald-headed city twin tossers.

 

[foo]

ah Griff, can you tell me the bald blokes' idea please - i missed their pitch but saw the dragons weren't too happy with them!
