It doesn't show in the edit of the show, but during this pitch everyone in the Den were interrupted by a sudden loud crash which came from the ground floor of the warehouse. Filming stopped and all of a sudden the lift doors opened to reveal Evan Davis stood covered in jam and giggling hysterically. "Sorry Dragons", he laughed, "couldn't help myself again, it gets so boring down there when you're all up here talking for ages". Touker picked up his spoon and sighed. "Okay Evan", he said. "I'll indulge in your game this time but this really needs to stop".

Plant based is consuming mostly or entirely plant-based foods. Plant based diets can have a little dairy and meat in them Vegan is where the person doesn't eat any animal produce I.e. meat, milk, eggs Vegetarian is where no meat is involved. Vegetarians can eat eggs, cheese and have milk I hope that clears it up for you!
Hi. Cheese often contains an enzyme derived from the stomach lining of calves. The source is not alive. Don't know that would make cheese vegetarian or vegan.
