  • Layla Bennett has a falconry business that needs a lift and with Monty, the falcon, in hand, will she have the Dragons feeding out of the palm of her hand? Layla glides through her pitch, making a strong case for Hawksdrift, and finishes by inviting the Dragons to stroke Monty.
    An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

      Duncan's a no-nonsense guy. Some people he takes a dislike to, some business ideas he doesn't like, and if the entrepreneur's being evasive or the numbers don't add up, he wastes no time in going out. But the flip side of thtat is he has a lot of time for honest, hardworking people with decent ideas, especially young people, and will come to their defence if he feels other dragons are bullying them or trrying to hustle them into unfair deals.
      He was even relatively patient with Derek of flow signals fame, who seemed like a decent and well-meaning, if hopeless, person. For a while anyway.

    Theo, despite his size, really thinks he is cock of true walk! Yes, she probably should have done a little research but asking someone to demonstrate why they’re valuable to the business is completely legit. She was indeed naive to include the fixed asset of land within the deal but perhaps suggested that because of the limited projections, and therefore, needed something to induce an offer. Either way, 50,000 as a silent partner was a steal, even if it does take a few years to recoup - specific businesses like this will always earn, just perhaps not as much as a regular business. I’m pretty sure there is a Dragons Den video called “flawless pitch” or something similar; I think this girl is more deserving.

    Theo once again proving that he's an out of touch, old, cranky boomer that doesn't know anything about anything, AND can't accept when he's totally in the wrong.
    I have a large business I made from nothing. I knew as soon as she said she owned the land, even with what her numbers were, what she asked for was absolutely reasonable. Duncan seemed to be the only one who figured it out.
    25k for 20% of that young ladies business for him and the same deal for another dragon, would mean he and another dragon would basically get that much back instantly in her asset value, essentially just buying a 1 for 1 stake in a property... thier money is safe and they make more money on land equity growth even if the business does nothing... and then him and another greedy dragon would be getting HALF of her businesses profits for free.

      Theo was entitled to ask for more than the going rate. The dragons almost always do unless there's a bidding war (on the basis that most entrepreneurs will underpitch in the first case, and then there'll be haggling), and he was obviously conflicted about whether it was a good investment. Deborah and Peter were out, so he was probably expecting a dragon's market, with James or Duncan to match his offer. He wasn't expecting Duncan to just swoop in and blow him out of the water.
      He could have responded better to the question about his background, although she could have framed that question better too to be fair.
