I wonder if that lift is real? Is this the same location they used for filming in the past? It looks more like a purpose-built studio now than it used to.
I think that's always been there because that's the only way I can think of them getting half the stuff in the Den ie cars etc

Well how the hell do they get cars in there I've always wanted to know.

She may as well have a tub of lard next to her for all the help her husband is giving.

Nah it's fake imo. Just a pretend wall and pretend doors.

Agreed. She even had to prompt him to start his bit of the pitch. He could have at least taken care of remembering teh figures. Maybe he's scared of ruining it for her.

I think it's a good rule because it shows how serious they are and how aware of their business they are. If they can't bring the most important figures of their business with them in their heads then that suggests something. Although I think sometimes in a situation like this there is clearly a creative person and she is perhaps not the best person to do figures. It wasn't like she forgot them in the heat of the moment. She just didn't seem good at remembering them. Hubby should have done that bit.

No idea. I guess there must be some sort of lift somewhere, I just don't think it's that one.

Is this even a real building or a studio set?

He has lost a ton of money recently although he never invests that often.

Don't like him. Wish they'd kept Theo.

but you would never turn up to a proper meeting with every thing in your head, the bank manager would chase you. and these poor sods have the 'being on tv' to contend with too.

But they used to come from downstairs in the last series, so is this a different location?

Wiki has a list of investments made per show. What are the 2 new Dragons like? Said I would not watch without Theo in it, but have heard it is good with the new ones. So asking those who watch it what they think of it. Better with or without Theo?

True but profit and loss are very important figures. You should know them off by heart really if you run a business. If you can't quote them then that suggests you're not taking much of an interest in your accounts.
