If I was a woman, and I'd spent £2000 on a Prada handbag, I'd be sending it back to Prada for cleaning/repair, not to some third party franchise.
Excellent point!

According to the tweet below, female-only businesses are on the rise, so it must be legal:

There's been a huge rise in female only businesses - plumbers, taxi drivers and many more - @van_girls are of the Zeitgeist #dragonsden

Sarah is easy on the eye but as Dragon she is the weak link
She also has more hair than the entire population of Malta, does she think it is 1986?

I wonder how much your normal electrician/aerial bloke would charge for installing a sync box. Either a ker-ching, or "try someone else, mate", accompanied by a sharp intake of breath. (I understood that the Chuckle Brothers did their own installations - countrywide? I doubt it - so possibly at a discount to get the punters interested)

Wonder if you could use that to get around the law ?

Don't want to employ women as they just sit at their desks filing their nails gossiping and then announce they're pregnant and going off for 12 months maternity leave 3months after you employ them ?

Just make your business male only !!!!!!!!

Whys it called a spa if its just repairing, if my Tv breaks down, i don't take it to a spa

Its gona be laid on some couch, and someones gona waft it with leaves, and rub cream into it
That's because no-one has been enterprising enough, to invent a tv spa!
It would cost more, to take a handag to the spa, than the cost of the item. Unless you are a massive Chanel or LV customer. I cannot justify spending more than approx. £100 on a bag. I am something of germophobe and, consequently, any items I own, never get dirty. If they did, I am quite capable of cleaning them myself.

Yes they do!

And you still need half your wall demolished and an electrician to install such a socket and so it's all a little silly thing for not much reason.
Was anyone else annoyed that the camera didn't show us the working model that they had for the wall socket wire tidy thingy?

Not once (that I saw) did they zoom in on of fully show the model in the corner, so I was sort of clueless at what they were pitching and what it would look like when finished.

I've been changing my mind about the two new guys on the show hate them then love them hate them love them, I guess it's a good thing they have fitted in well.

Sarah gives off a vibe that she isn't no where as big as the other dragons does anyone else feel that?
She reminds me of Kelly Hoppen and Piers Linney neither seemed to want to invest.

So, instead of getting poo on your hands, you get it in your wallet and on your hands?

Yeah it's a good point.. the card would surely become a carrier for the germs and transfer them to the wallet.

I agree, he seemed a nice guy, fair enough tell him you dont want to invest, but no need for the remarks

I get a feeling there is a bit of "panto" going on this series. Can't quite put my finger on it.
