I was a contestant on Dragons Den

I've often wondered if DD was set up to make the contestants look like tools & the "Dragons" cool.

Cheers for the insight, Its put me off future viewing tbh, although I had lost interest long before your post OP. :)
 
Wow didn't know it was quite that staged. Same as Apprentice I guess behind the scenes.

Any links to see what goes on behind the scenes in the Apprentice? How is it... "staged"?

Personally I'd have told them to shove it if they wanted to make me look like an absolute moron on national TV.

If the idea is crap, and there is clearly no chance of investment I'd want to still remain "myself" on TV... if I look like an arse, it's because I made myself look like one... not because I was told to be one.

edit:

It's another boycott thread! Ha... be real people, there's always a hint that parts of these shows are staged, it's not going to put me off watching the show. It's still entertaining television :)
 
I have already been on telly! You probably saw me! I was on the Christmas special the last year that Rachel the 'red letters day' bird was on it.

I'm probably on youtube somewhere! I was the full 15 minute deal not 'Britboy also turned up but we won't show him'!!

They said as I wandered away 'xxx has the dubious honour of being the fastest contestant ever out of the Dragons Den'.

Anyone remember me? :)

So you went on again? Or this happened last year, in which case why are you only posting this now?
 
It's my first post in 'general discussion'.

I joined in December 2008 and spend months just in PC games forum. Then I posted in that and 'motors' for a few months .. then I thought 'I haven't told this lot about dragons den -- which 'place' should I put such a post' hence my first ever 'general discussion' post!!

(I didn't have to sign anything about non-disclosure. Oh- the interview afterwards with 'economics host man', they did 'noddies' by the way. But the second time of filming (me doing the noddy) -- he changed his question slightly, to make my original answer to the first time filmed question seem dumber than it actually was! If you don't know what 'noddies' are -- this sentence wont make sense)
