And his reference to Mrs P.

Miss him too. He was my favourite Dragon.

Is this back on for a new series?!

Haven't read anything the new series in any of the newspapers or even seen ads on the BBC for this!

They kept this quiet!

Bet viewing figures will be poor.

Starting at half past an hour (rather than the usual 8pm/9pm start) is annoying too.

Classic Dragons' Den error. Demonstrate a website

http://frameagain.com/

...and it gives a "Error establishing a database connection"

Anyway, Photobox do it now: http://www.photobox.co.uk/shop/prints/framed-prints and any other online print shop could do it quickly.

To be fair that's probably because the web service has been designed to be resilient under normal conditions, not the unique conditions of suddenly having your website being 'advertised' directly to several million people.

Put the £30 towards a camera photo printer and print and frame to your hearts content.

But if you know your site is going to be on national TV then you prepare for it. Even if that means just putting up a static placeholder for a few hours.

Evan - next time you throw your suit in the washing machine, try the 'Cool' wash setting.

Online photo framing isn't exactly a copyrightable idea - especially a business that only offered one design and a high price tag. Plenty of businesses are already doing it.

Stumbled accross this interview with Duncan from last year. Interestingly.....

But after eleven series, it doesn't look like this long-serving Dragon is ready to leave the Den anytime soon. "I would do it if a project came up, but it's very difficult to see how you could beat Dragons' Den as a business show.

I guess the correct project came up!

They refused Peters offer, must be mad. Who would want an ugly frame like that, especially in "Square" format. Dont most smart phones have a mini SD card just take it in to ASDA (or anywhere) print your own & buy any frame. Or online.

It's still showing an error this morning. If your website can't take a million hits after showing up on TV then you have lost a lot of money. I'm a Developer and stress-testing a website so it survives is a solved problem.

Or more likely they went out of business.
