There's a chain called Big and Tall and I'm sure it's not the only one.

I've never been so moved by anyone like this entrepreneur his resilience led him to Victory well deserved

Even though the title is probably a branding thing, this TRUELY WAS one of the BEST pitches i've ever seen, and i've seen ALMOST EVERY Dragons Den pitch! As someone with autism/aspergers and other problems, this man is an inspiration.

I’m autistic. This is the best representation of our kind ❤

Delighted he got investor and he made a fantastic pitch,probably one of the very best I have seen and believe me I have seen many episodes- good luck and greetings from Ireland!

Very polite young man n one of the best pitch on this show wishing him all the best

Brilliant, really happy for him. Faiplay Tucca for investing.

I agree his pitch was fantastic, he new his product, his numbers are spot on. Well done.

Well done Ben! With Tucca's backing I hope that your business is a success and continues to do so for many more years to come.

He earned that trust money before and after he got it. For me this highlights why inheritance is so much better being released when the person is older rather than straight away. Ben went through the hard yards that made him humble but also developed him and gave him drive. He was able to make the most of the money if he got it when was younger it very well may have made his problems worse.

What a guy. Truly inspirational.

Amazing guy I wish him all the success he deserves

What an amazing young man... I hope he is doing well.

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

Head and shoulders above any other pitch I’ve seen and I’ve been watching Dragons Den since Noggin the Nog!

Sales in the millions, impressive. And this guy was able to answer all the numbers questions without hesitation. Plus, he didn't have to go talk to the wall, or try to bargan Touker down. Actually, I thought the offer was generous. 40% would not have been out of line.

Toukers face at the end was like..'omg what have i done??!!!' 😅😅😅

This is not a good ending as you all think it is. The snake took advantage of Ben with a ludicrous piece of the pie for very little money.

Brilliant! You know how they do those follow-up shows? What happened? I look forward to seeing this one sometime down the line.

Well done so happy for you

Good luck Ben, you deserve it !!

So inspiring, first DD I’ve sat fingers crossed for an investment

Top company and very well done.

Awesome!!!! lovely man well done 😀

Well done! 👏 It’s interesting that after watching this, I have gained respect for Peter Jones. His questions were specific and the fact that he mentioned “I know you like honesty” made me realise that he has some knowledge about autism and understanding of challenges autistic people face when communicating with neurotypicals.

That man is literally the coolest looking mf to ever exist… he would play such an awesome Villain

Well done lad, I hope you do well. . . .

Very nice!

Considering that this is probably one of the best and confident pitches I have ever seen across the Canadian, Aussie, US , UK and Indian versions of the show, I was very surprised to see him getting only 1 offer. At some point you have to trust your instincts on the character and grit of a person rather than financial metrics, every time, and the sharks failed to do that, having acknowledged and admired Ben as a person.

Wonderful you got the Investment

The way he snapped his hand off and didn’t barter was simply because he knew exactly how much equity he wanted to give away and clearly it was more than 10%… he would’ve probably gone to 40

He said hes stuck and doesnt know how to sell overseas so Peter asks how is he going to sell overseas.

My therapist told us that there is diffability - different ability. I'm an autistic author - the highest form of entrepreneurship.

I'm glad he got left that money, some people really deserve it 🙂

Ive seen the dragons fight over much lesser deals by people with zero correct numbers and stories that don't come close to his - but this eloquent hardworking dude is somehow not investable for 4 of them? 🙄 I don't buy it. feels like it was decided to be Touker's deal from the beginning.

I bet they will regret investing. This cud hit 100m in 5 years

He did specify high street. Jacamo is catalogue. But even beyond that, at his prices he is undercutting jacamo's prices by a fair amount -just based on the last time I ordered anything and I admit that was a few years ago- and I believe his biggest sizes are bigger than jacamo as well.

Absolute scammer, should be arrested for the practices he does now, no returns to refunds, disgusting.

Guys, for anyone writing good stuff about his company I gotta disappoint you. His company is just a big scam. People are ordering and getting their stuff after months or returning stuff and never getting a refund even after months while ignoring all the mails and calls. If I could spit in their face I would. I've been waiting 2 weeks and the order hasen't even been shipped yet.

This is good, but calling this the best pitch ever on the show is nonsense. It's not even top3 and showcases a lack of knowledge about other Dragon's Den episodes from your part. And then, I noticed that this video was published by you and not the official Dragons' Den or BBC YT channels. That makes much more sense as the reason for that overly confident title. I mean, who other than yourself is going to call this the best pitch ever on the show?

There’s no need to be so savage to somebody who is extremely inspiring and refreshingly straight & honest with the Dragons. The balance sheet was, of course, of great concern; however he remained confident, trustworthy and solid when it came to answering the questions. Let the company rejoice and enjoy the moment. Well done - may you go from strength to strength.

@@brunaskarting116 I would never argue against this being a good human being and who has achieved something that not many do. That is undeniable. I am just completely against what the title represents. As I find it not only clickbait, (which I don't really mind too much, I usually just dislike the video and keep doing what I'm doing) but also the sense of superiority and arrogance that somebody must have to make such a statement after a tv show that has been active for shy of 20 years. And to be clear I am not talking about balance sheet or any of that. I am purely talking about his whole pitch, how he presented the company when he got the opportunity to have all those 5 important people shut up and listen to him for x amount of time.

His trust fund wasn’t released to him until he become of age and he said there was a gap in the care system so for example I imagine he became homeless between 16 and 18 for him to end up in young offenders. Some trust funds are released at 18 and others at 21 depending on what way things are left so that’s probably how he ended up in the vulnerable position before he was able to have access to the money
