Dragons' Den tormentor-in-chief Duncan Bannatyne reveals a sounder side, savaging an entrepreneur when it is revealed that his shoddy business proposal has, for the last five years, been propped up with a £148,000 grant from the government. Sales during this period totalled a mere £7,000!

'Grumpy Woman' Deborah Meaden also weighs in, lamenting the inefficiency inherent a business that survives off spending other people's money rather than its own.

Bizarrely, two of the other Dragons later invested in the product...?!?

  • the guy is a leach £150,000 on that no wonder the goverment is in debt cos it gives handouts to leaches like this guy.

  • Duncan talks so much shit...

  • This guy was completely ridiculous. He used 70,000 pounds for the production of this product. Whereas if he had truely been efficient with his resources, he could've done it for far less. Hell, he even produced these things for 450 pounds per set. I can probably do it for less using only products from the shelves.

  • Duncan would certainly have it in him to call Theo and Peter idiots.

  • a great video, thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work!

    Have subbed and looking forward to new content :)
