hot girls for itsoles man but sticky insoles? nobody's thought of that before, really?
Welsh accents too

The duo pimping out pensioners had some cheek, glad Peter called them out.

The springy phone thing would be horrible on flip phones. Smartphones are 90% screen so it would probably obscure a chunk of your screen. They haven't thought it through

I've turned off DD this season. It's lost its edge...way too predictable and annoying commentary.

To bring some trash into this thread, the younger of the two men in the last pitch looked a lot like Diags from The Only Way Is Essex. Poor boy.

Tuned in after missing a few weeks. Evan still spoiling the show at every opportunity I see. I think if they do look at making changes to the show any time soon they need to address that problem because it's getting a tad annoying now. It doesn't completely kill the drama but it takes a certain amount away from the show. Appreciate he has to talk during the show but currently every time he opens his mouth he is spoiling the next few minutes of the show.

TBH if I had a brilliant business plan / product , I think the last people on earth I would ask for help from is the Dragons ... over the years they seem to me to want more and more sometime to the point thay barly leave much for the person who's idea/product it is in the first place

It is mostly companies who think they are wonderful and want to fly before they can walk but don't have the money to do so. So they have a brainwave of getting an investor to pay for it and think (wrongly) that they will do it for a couple of quid back.

Then of course the Dragons never got rich by giving money away and so want to have it all.

The Dragons are worse than the banks!
I pmsl when Theo said to the patio slabs spacer man- ”When Mrs P lays the patio......”
Apart from that, it was boring, but I love Hilary. She’s really down to earth and got bags of common sense. I heard she’s leaving at the end of the series. We’ll have to go back to seeing Deborah’s bitch-face all the time.

That inflatables thing only got investment because of the Addison Lee guy.


Addison Lee is such a big company, why didn't he put another £37000 in? I'm sure he has the spare cash?

I liked seeing/hearing the "GEORGIA!" clip again in the series compilation at the end!

I don't think it was about the money - they wanted a Dragon.

Best line of the series.

I liked the Boatbox and the Baby Seat....but the Bra-what's it........more straps to undo....

There are rumours it's going to be Michelle Mone, the Ultimo bra woman. Not sure how true the rumours are though

Must be something about that seat, Richard Farley, James and now Hilary gone. Is Hilary going out of choice or has she been kicked off?

With this been the end of the series maybe keep the thread going a bit with memories of previous series, pitches, who have been you favourite and least favourite dragons

Out of all the products that the dragons have invested in what would you say he been the most successful. Reggie Sauce been the most high profile but not sure if it has been most successful product

Chose to leave, I believe. Not surprised. A lot of good offers from her have been turned down.
