Richard Farleigh without a doubt was one of the best dragons ever. I'd love to have someone like him as an investor. He doesn't just tag along like Theo and Deborah and has an almost James Bond flair. Why they got rid of him is bonkers
agreed. very underrated dragon. nobody has ever tried to pull what peter did ever again and it was brave that richard spoke up like that, especially against the biggest baddest dragon, while also kind of making light of it with the quick disclaimer. unfortunately it looked like peter got kinda frustrated, and i dont imagine he'd be pulling those expressions before that happened so i cant assume the editors are trying to push fake drama. i really hope this isnt what got richard dropped from the show. im sure after so long, even peter would've regret trying this now
@@TraXXXtar He likely left of his own accord. The Dragons get paid very little to appear on the show. If he wasn't finding the caliber of investments he was seeking, he may not have found out worth his time to return for further seasons.

Ah, Godot. I've been waiting for you. 😂 But seriously... I'm not sure Richard's offer was nice at all. Those women needed reining in so they didn't go in too many directions. I wonder if he was planning to take them to the cleaners when the inevitably over-reached themselves? 🤔
Well, at least it opened doors to other famous investors, e.g. the Banking Queen with two lads strapped at home and a Man United fan, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome none other than Jenny Campbell!
yeah i would argue these are the 5 best dragons of all time. richards my 3rd fave but i'd understand if people have him 5th overall behind the other 4 here. of course if him leaving to pave the way for other great dragons like touka, tej, jenny and nick jenkins, then i'm all for it. he had such a great enough impact in just 2 seasons to the point where i'd argue nobody comes close to having that level of an impact in such a short time. so mathematically he'd have the best impact over time (impact divided by time), whatever that function/expression would be, i dunno lol
Richard Farley (or Fairley?) made an excellent point: people who calculate the value of a business don't have to pay that amount of money - they have no 'skin in the game'. Most of the entrepreneurs come into the dragons' den with high valuations based on their own belief in or passion for the project. When they state sales or profit numbers, it's clear that the valuation is a dream or an ambition for the future. Just like estate agents valuing houses - they don't have to buy the houses!
Richard has always been the dragon that is more dangerous than anyone else. He's always been the alpha for Peter, never seen anyone else able to bat Peter away or keep him down
Lol yea you could almost see the words through his skull . . . Reminded me of that scene in the wedding singer where the other singer watches from behind the curtain as Adam sander “loses his mind” 🎶BUT IT WAS ALL BULLSHIT🎵😝
Probably the second video I see Richard pissing off Peter. The first is the wind turbine where Richard passively praised the design, after Peter mocked the design. That expression and reaction is priceless, especially when Theo followed suit.
For anyone wondering they seem to be doing pretty well now despite the pandemic but they have an outdated website and a lack of social media presence I honestly think they would’ve benefited a lot from that investment.
I get so annoyed when they never counter offer by actually putting forward the percentage they want. Why close the conversation without saying 'would you consider 25% or 20%? Makes no sense.
Totally agree. Even worse they simply posed the negative question "You wouldn't consider changing the percentage...?". Terrible lack of negotiating skills.
In a follow-up episode, they admit to regretting turning-down Richard's offer and that they contacted him afterwards to do the deal, which he then rejected.

nice, hes very underrated and i hope more people view him more favourably in the future. hes my 3rd fave and i think hes at least top 5 for best overall. i can understand thinking hes boring but not if you've seen enough segments with him in it, especially this one. this one is for the history books. nobodies ever tried to pull what peter did today ever again
It looks like neither people are involved anymore, at least on the UK side. Yogabugs was dissolved, but Yogabugs UK still exists. Though neither are associated there.
After the show Peter Jones offered them £1.5 million for the whole business which they rejected. The business became very successful and Fenella became rich when she sold the company which is still going strong in the UK and a number of countries.
@@peterd788 The Dragons are just poker players, and most of the time they think they can bluff their way into investing cheaply. Sometimes, especially Peter, outright bullies the candidates to invest on air, them they unsurprisingly renege off air. These ladies in the this videos called his bluff, and bulliying and were better for it.
I love the idea of a yogabugs program being taught to kids. How awesome. But it can be complicated in that these people seek to employ third party “strangers” to instruct it. We have Zumba kids here. Kids love it.
My mother taught children yoga in the seventies to the nineties. She's in her eighties now. Not a new thing. She made money but gave it all to charity so didn't make a big shed load of money for herself.
It’s a new year with bright and beautiful ideals , hope you’ll got a huge list for this 2021 . Coz last year was messed up due to many weren’t wise enough to consider investment . But the question, what will you achieve this year?

I think they've got some other investor or have been bought out: Mark Goode. Fenella and Lara resigned both from their oh so loved YogaBugs. Later on the company was dissolved. Now Mark Goode is director of YogaBugs (UK) Limited and some other bug related businesses (Dancebugs, Footiebugs, Rugbybugs, etc.). Basically, the ladies started the bug thing and, I guess, Mark Goode has taken this to the next level. All his bug businesses came after the ladies resigned from their original YogaBugs. Fenella started a new business: Yoga Forever. And Lara teamed up with another lady setting up a wholesale clothing business. I guess, they should have had accepted Richards offer and are now regretting that they didn't.
Richard got more fan Mail than the other four put together. He was popular, especially with the ladies, but the BBC wanted a more ‘ethnically diverse’ panel and so last in first out. But it did the job for him, it gave him fame and a platform. He even appeared in the Gossip columns when he went out with Anthea Turner, lol. He’s a good looking, stylish fellow……not quite tall enough to be the full package though. On a side note, FYI, I am the full package …….but you’re just going to have to take my word for it.
@@tashasimmons747 well that was the story suggested by the Daily Mail at the time. Not sure it is based on fact. I have heard he said he had not made any investments at all in his final series.

I'm confused. Their Twitter account tweeted as recently as two days ago. They have a Facebook page, a RUclips account, and a website. Why do you say that they've disappeared?
This was actually one of the most blatant attempts of the Dragons trying to straight up scam a business. Deborah going out because of some ridiculous caveat of hers that makes little to no sense, Duncan just says "you don't need my money" when they told them exactly why and how they'd use it. Of course, Peter and Theo jump on it as the 'last resort option' asking for insane amounts of control over a 15% shareholder position each, while severely undervaluing their company at 700k (Peter even offering them 1.5mil for a buyout right after the show) is just the cherry on top. Big props to Richard calling them out on their bullshit. Really glad the girls didn't get baited into accepting it. Nowadays Tej would probably also just bail on some imaginary non-issue, so theyd be completely pressured by malicious bids. Big reason why the old clips are 100x better than the new ones.
Deborah (NOT Debbie) is spot on. To large a field to trust anyone with your children. Child abuse and paedophilia Is epidemic. I’d NEVER trust a soul I didn’t know around my children. I know you the outcome well! I’m afraid we live in a world where most people are bad, even evil!
Whether they're rowing on a boat , whether they're flying mystical birds or even riding the ocean waves and even if their children are the heroes, it doesn't matter they'll never be heroic enough to get Jenny to invest, she will constantly be out and they'll need to go on these adventures to probably find her and stop Peter wanting their granny's house and their husband's second cousin's business.
Why on earth didn't they make him a counteroffer?! He offered 30% - why not try and get him down to 20% - 25%? They even admitted at the end that they'd have gone higher. Ultimate own goal.
Okay, they have a successfully run yoga business, but honestly, its scope is not global and ultimately neither would its valuation be in billions. Sure, the girls built their dream which takes massive guts and sacrifice, but eventually, to go big, you've got to share a pie with somebody who can take you to the next level. Plus, I'm totally annoyed with the way they tried to negotiate. Who on Earth asks about the other party's "mood" to negotiate. You simply put a counter-offer, and the negotiation begins - sometimes with an outright rejection and sometimes with a subsequent offer to the counter-offer. They might be great entrepreneurs, but, as we so often see, with a terrible understanding of finance and money. It's a shame! They will live to regret it, I guess.
"What you gonna do with the money?" Fenella's gonna blow it all voicing the audiobooks! Don't know how things went for them, but strike me as a couple of control freaks.
Could be that Richard was obstinate about his offer because there were no other offers on the table at the time. The ladies should have first negotiated the deal with him before walking away from Peter and Theo's. It's always best to leave the dragon feeling he or she has got competition.
@The Most Secure Election in History it's totally put on. You can tell by the inconsistencies in it. It's an act. Be yourself, everyone else is taken, as one of her historical compatriots famously said.

I'm confused. Their Twitter account tweeted as recently as two days ago. They have a Facebook page, a RUclips account, and a website. Why do you say that they've disappeared?
@The Most Secure Election in History That is most certainly true. I was just objecting to the idea that they had disappeared from the web.
Peter looks like he can't wait for the episode to end. I don't think he was into it back then
This was actually one of the most blatant attempts of the Dragons trying to straight up scam a business.
Deborah going out because of some ridiculous caveat of hers that makes little to no sense, Duncan just says "you don't need my money" when they told them exactly why and how they'd use it.
Of course, Peter and Theo jump on it as the 'last resort option' asking for insane amounts of control over a 15% shareholder position each, while severely undervaluing their company at 700k (Peter even offering them 1.5mil for a buyout right after the show) is just the cherry on top.
Big props to Richard calling them out on their bullshit. Really glad the girls didn't get baited into accepting it. Nowadays Tej would probably also just bail on some imaginary non-issue, so theyd be completely pressured by malicious bids. Big reason why the old clips are 100x better than the new ones.
Deborah (NOT Debbie) is spot on. To large a field to trust anyone with your children. Child abuse and paedophilia Is epidemic. I’d NEVER trust a soul I didn’t know around my children. I know you the outcome well! I’m afraid we live in a world where most people are bad, even evil!
Whether they're rowing on a boat , whether they're flying mystical birds or even riding the ocean waves and even if their children are the heroes, it doesn't matter they'll never be heroic enough to get Jenny to invest, she will constantly be out and they'll need to go on these adventures to probably find her and stop Peter wanting their granny's house and their husband's second cousin's business.
Why on earth didn't they make him a counteroffer?! He offered 30% - why not try and get him down to 20% - 25%? They even admitted at the end that they'd have gone higher. Ultimate own goal.
Okay, they have a successfully run yoga business, but honestly, its scope is not global and ultimately neither would its valuation be in billions. Sure, the girls built their dream which takes massive guts and sacrifice, but eventually, to go big, you've got to share a pie with somebody who can take you to the next level. Plus, I'm totally annoyed with the way they tried to negotiate. Who on Earth asks about the other party's "mood" to negotiate. You simply put a counter-offer, and the negotiation begins - sometimes with an outright rejection and sometimes with a subsequent offer to the counter-offer. They might be great entrepreneurs, but, as we so often see, with a terrible understanding of finance and money. It's a shame! They will live to regret it, I guess.
I'm asking on behalf of the nation.
Is that how it works? :D
@@martincarr911 that’s exactly how it works :D
Richard reminds me of Lord Farquaad
A lot of the investments are not actually shares in the company often with peter and theo and Duncan they give money via loans not buying shares
Not weird that Theo wanted to invest as he apparently loves the fetal position...
Theo the fetus
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Sheesh.., who does the subtitling? It's hilarious! Pizza Jones? Haha.
Theopa Fetus
Haha! It's all automated
"What you gonna do with the money?"
Fenella's gonna blow it all voicing the audiobooks!
Don't know how things went for them, but strike me as a couple of control freaks.
Her name is Goodbody? Love it.
Is no one else looking at Deborah and thinking....Lord Farquad!
Sulky jones lolked like he was going to cry .
Just checked, the company dissolved. Peter was right
They should have called the business *GOODBODY* .
Yea they missed a trick there
They call it nobody now
Really like Richard definitely my favourite dragon
Hello, I am the prime minster of Australia. I can arrange an introduction with Richard for the right price. You scratch my back, I scratch yours.
Teachers have a hard enough time to have funds for resources. Most schools cannot afford to buy branded teaching courses.
There still going strong even now
Sigourney Weaver started a yoga company?
Could be that Richard was obstinate about his offer because there were no other offers on the table at the time. The ladies should have first negotiated the deal with him before walking away from Peter and Theo's. It's always best to leave the dragon feeling he or she has got competition.
The narrator and dragons would be all over "Laura Goodbody" with puns if this was done more recently
Corona hit. They have already regretted it
The blonde girl has the most put-on Anglo-Irish accent ever. You're Irish, accept it and embrace it.
Is fearr Gaeilge briste, na Bearla cliste
@The Most Secure Election in History it's totally put on. You can tell by the inconsistencies in it. It's an act. Be yourself, everyone else is taken, as one of her historical compatriots famously said.
@The Most Secure Election in History but if you're doing that to distance yourself from the culture/society you've grown up in, that's problematic. It's as if you think speaking one way is better than the way people you grew up with spoke
Why the hell do you care what someones accent is?
@@caspianmanpredator163 because if she's doing it to hide and distance herself from her true identity, it's because she thinks its superior. That's wrong in my opinion, and as an Irish person, I think it's offensive.
Deborah- " I'm a grumpy old lady who hasn't been fooked proper in over a decade and for that reason I'm oot"
