How refreshing it is to see a new dragonto bring fresh blood into the programme. Very likeable and shrewd with a modern outlook and admirable character who knows what it's like to be on the bottom rung of the ladder, having been homeless so has retained his empathy making him an ideal candidate for new entrepreneurs to trust and admire..
watching Steven on DOAC he already has lots of wine contacts and wine and cheese are like peaches and cream I reckon this will def take off and really respect him for cutting in to say he won't bleed them dry to him its not about JUST money he wants to see them succeed.. the others are just sharks...well done guys... you made the right choice!

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".

15:43 100%!
I don't really get this... What happens when you have tried all the British Made cheeses? Like there will be a saturation point and then it's repetition. Eventually you will just buy the cheese you like most in the supermarket or contact the dairy farm itself. And if it creates a profile according to what you like won't it end up repeating the same box with few cheeses you really like on and on again?

i think they meant the model of app subscription based cheese. They could set that up in other countries and source local cheese there.
Just import Swiss cheese. Transport isn’t that far. You’ll find lots only pasture fed. (Here actually I might add: even if a farmer has his cows outside in nature on the pasture and all that - he might still additionally feed “power food” like two times a day. They do that serially. Power food is not always carcass meal, but corn and other sugars are also very, very bad to feed to cows. And they get impregnated, boys slaughtered and everything else Deborah rightfully doesn’t like surrounding the production of dairy produce. IF YOU STILL HAVE A MINUTE: There’s a harrowing and gruesome statistic I found on Wikipedia recently, “the changing distribution of our world’s land mammals, that of all the biomass of land mammals on planet earth, is 63% live stock (animals, who are bred for humans and pets or other live stock to eat their body parts), 35% humans (billions and billions and still counting) - wildlife is 2% of the biomass of all land mammals on our planet.
The main reason this went so well is Brexit and cheese imports implications
