:01:45. > :01:50.THIS PROGRAMME CONTAINS SOME STRONG LANGUAGE.
:01:50. > :01:54.Last time. There is no chicken? Richard picked
:01:54. > :01:58.the first three ideas he was willing to back.
:01:58. > :02:03.Well done. Fr a dizzy few weeks...
:02:03. > :02:09.business plan did not make much sense. I can't invest.
:02:09. > :02:19.Only one bagged investment to the life-changing tune of �50,000.
:02:19. > :02:25.Wow! Which three ideas is he going to take a risk on this time? Meet
:02:25. > :02:29.Richard Reed, the smoothy behind Innocent Drinks. He is Britain's
:02:29. > :02:32.hottest entrepreneur. He is on the hunt for the business stars of the
:02:32. > :02:40.future. The mission is simple. We want to
:02:40. > :02:45.spot, support invest in a whole new generation of entrepreneural talent.
:02:45. > :02:49.He has set aside up to �1 million with nationwide and help you to get
:02:49. > :02:55.a slice of it. You have to have a good idea and be
:02:55. > :03:00.prepared to work really hard. 500 hopefuls will get the chance to
:03:00. > :03:03.pitch their ideas to Richard. From the dazzling... I absolutely
:03:03. > :03:07.love it. To the diabolical.
:03:07. > :03:10.It is an awful idea. Each week, he is to pick the best
:03:10. > :03:15.three. It is about the idea, but mostly
:03:15. > :03:18.about the team. To put them through their paces.
:03:18. > :03:23.You have to think about it as an entrepreneur.
:03:24. > :03:26.I want to work for myself. It is either a crazy invention or a
:03:26. > :03:30.brilliant idea. I don't know how to run a business.
:03:30. > :03:33.They are not thinking big enough. Before deciding who is good enough
:03:34. > :03:40.to win a once in a lifetime investment.
:03:40. > :03:50.Why no sales? Why no orders? You have miscalled it on team, strategy
:03:50. > :03:51.
:03:51. > :03:57.and valuation. I can't invest. A rainy weekend in London. Huge
:03:57. > :04:02.lines of people are gathering to meet one man.
:04:02. > :04:06.Richard made his fortune when he helped to found one of Britain's
:04:06. > :04:10.biggest brands, Innocent Drinks. We are flat out, I believe, the
:04:10. > :04:13.best country for entrepreneurship in the world. We are going to show
:04:13. > :04:20.that today. So great is his faith, in an hour's
:04:20. > :04:23.time the doors are to open on this vast arena. 500 hopefuls will
:04:23. > :04:27.compete for Richard's business backing.
:04:27. > :04:32.What there is all of empty booths. Each one has the name of the
:04:32. > :04:36.businesses on top of them. Each one of those there is a story, a team,
:04:36. > :04:44.an idea, a dream. I want to meet them.
:04:44. > :04:47.In a show of confidence, he has handed over �100 to each of the
:04:47. > :04:55.hopefuls. To see if they can turn a profit. A
:04:55. > :04:59.total give away of �50,000. What they did to make money was up
:04:59. > :05:05.to them. Where is the nearest bookies?
:05:05. > :05:10.were keen enough to film it. Some went the conventional route...
:05:10. > :05:14.Others, not so much... And now they've been invited to meet
:05:14. > :05:19.Richard in person. I think that the majority are going
:05:19. > :05:25.to turn up, have done well with the money and will have some great
:05:25. > :05:28.ideas, but I could end up at the end of the day �50,000 poorer. That
:05:28. > :05:34.is a possibility. We will find out soon enough.
:05:34. > :05:37.It is all or nothing for the eager beavers, but will any persuade
:05:37. > :05:43.Richard of their money-making pro ten shall.
:05:43. > :05:47.Our business is amazing. You will love working for us. We will be
:05:47. > :05:53.naked! Everything we do is nut- based.
:05:53. > :05:57.My happy helper... Invest in us it will be the best thing you have
:05:57. > :06:05.ever done. Choose uz! We are the next big thing.
:06:05. > :06:08.Mixing it up! Let's go. For Richard, whose reputation and
:06:09. > :06:12.fortune is at stake, this is a hell of a risk.
:06:12. > :06:18.You don't know until you have heard the pitch and met the people. Some
:06:18. > :06:22.will crash and burn, but some will make it.
:06:22. > :06:27.The hundreds of nervous hopefuls know that the green light from
:06:27. > :06:34.Richard could change their lives forever.
:06:34. > :06:41.Yesterday I got in the shower with my underwear on. I was so nervous!
:06:41. > :06:49.No too bad. Getting there. It will be life-changing to get
:06:49. > :06:59.that investment. Life-changing. Let the pitching begin.
:06:59. > :07:05.
:07:05. > :07:09.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE First to pitch are the Sugar
:07:09. > :07:14.Dollets. The modelling agency who think they are too sexy for their
:07:14. > :07:18.shirts, and their trousers! They want to create a frisky,
:07:18. > :07:26.international brand, but will Richard be seduced enough to part
:07:26. > :07:36.with the cash? I have been told it talk to the models.
:07:36. > :07:38.
:07:38. > :07:45.Hi... Hi... OK, great. Oh, I did not shake your
:07:45. > :07:50.hand! Who is doing the pitch? Basically this is a model for any
:07:50. > :07:58.type of client. A promisow model or a high-fashion model, we have got
:07:58. > :08:03.Who are you turning over? We are getting turnovers of 400, but we
:08:03. > :08:11.need more advertising. I can see Morecambeing out of it.
:08:11. > :08:16.You have racy pictures there? some are glamour it is like a
:08:16. > :08:24.Playboy, but not pornow. I don't know what you are referring
:08:24. > :08:29.The Dolletts are delighted with the pitch, but what does Richard think?
:08:29. > :08:33.That is a flat "no". I don't feel comfortable with that. It is
:08:33. > :08:40.getting too close to adult stuff. It is not where I'm at.
:08:40. > :08:45.The second business it pitch may have what Richard needs. Friends
:08:45. > :08:48.Alistair and Johnny are cleaning up with customised shower gel.
:08:48. > :08:53.I have my weaker moment in the shower.
:08:53. > :08:58.I was picking between the shower gels. I realised that the
:08:58. > :09:03.ingredients were the same. Maths teacher, Johnny is giving up
:09:03. > :09:08.his day job to concentrate on the winning formula.
:09:08. > :09:15.But will their pitch win with Richard? You are winning on arpblg
:09:15. > :09:23.nalility and look. -- originality and look. Alistair... Johnny.
:09:23. > :09:27.What is it? This is the future of toiletries.
:09:27. > :09:35.Good margins? Great margins. To produce this costs �1, but we sell
:09:35. > :09:39.it for �4. You are a maths teacher? Yes.
:09:39. > :09:45.You are? Engineer. You are in full-time employment, if
:09:45. > :09:49.I give you the money now, what? will be free to go at this full-
:09:49. > :09:52.time. You will hand in your notice?
:09:52. > :09:56.I have a product that seems to sell. I have to take the chance and go
:09:56. > :10:01.for it. Good for you, man. Well done.
:10:01. > :10:05.Cheers. I think that Richard was impressed with the idea it is
:10:05. > :10:08.original and innovative. It is interactive so it is new to the
:10:08. > :10:14.marketplace. They were flat out likeable. Do I
:10:14. > :10:16.think that idea is going to make it all the way to being a long-term
:10:16. > :10:22.sustainable business? I think it could do.
:10:22. > :10:28.From the hundreds here, Richard is looking for three big ideas to
:10:28. > :10:33.invest in. They could be anything from amazing inventions... To
:10:33. > :10:35.quirky concoctions... That tastes nicer than it looks.
:10:35. > :10:41.Traditional dancers... To cheeky chancers.
:10:41. > :10:45.I like it. It is wicked. Everyone has their
:10:45. > :10:50.own thing. That is what I love about the entrepreneurs, they do
:10:50. > :10:56.what they want to do. I love your shirt. Great to meet
:10:56. > :11:02.you. Thank you. Richard is circling the epxo on the
:11:02. > :11:10.hunt for the three killer ideas. It is sink or swim time for 24-year-
:11:10. > :11:13.old Ross. He is a vacuum coastliner -- cleaner designer, he has
:11:13. > :11:18.invented a craft that could save swimmer's lives.
:11:18. > :11:24.I love the product. I need the help to create it into a business. I'm
:11:24. > :11:33.dead excited. Yeah. But will he be able to reel Richard
:11:33. > :11:39.in? How is it going? Fantastic, thanks. Mate, this looks great,
:11:39. > :11:45.what is it? It is a rescue aid for the life guard. I designed it.
:11:45. > :11:51.You bull yourself like that through the water? Yes, you put the
:11:51. > :11:54.casualty here. You can be the casualty across me, an monitor what
:11:54. > :11:59.is happening while we shoot through the water.
:11:59. > :12:04.Any ideas as to how to make it and what you sell it for? I am looking
:12:04. > :12:10.to sell it for about �3,000. You have tested it? I have tested
:12:10. > :12:15.it with the RNLI and had great feedback. Now I want to make the
:12:15. > :12:25.next prototype, really. It looks great. It is a good-fun
:12:25. > :12:28.project. The best thing is I get to play with the board in the murky
:12:28. > :12:36.waters of Skegness. He was such a nice guy.
:12:36. > :12:42.But, will Mr Nice Guy put Ross in the top three? I am excited by this
:12:42. > :12:46.guy. He is a product engineer. He used to be a life guard. He has put
:12:46. > :12:50.it together, built the prototype, he has tested it and he has someone
:12:50. > :12:54.interested to buy it. That is something to get excited by.
:12:54. > :12:59.With hundreds of pictures to get through, with a serious amount of
:12:59. > :13:03.cash at stake, Richard has drafted in help.
:13:03. > :13:08.From make-up to marketing, to App developers, between them, these
:13:08. > :13:12.entrepreneurs have it covered. They are working with Richard to sift
:13:12. > :13:18.the no-brainers from the total non- starters.
:13:18. > :13:27.It is an online record label. So, sleep, relaxation, even music
:13:27. > :13:32.for dogs. Music for dogs? That may seem like a crazy concept...
:13:32. > :13:42.Possibly barking! How much revenue has it generated? About �256789
:13:42. > :13:46.
:13:46. > :13:50.Kerching! Hmm... The incentive to the suppliers will be...
:13:50. > :13:54.guessing that is not good? Over lunch a worried Richard checks in
:13:54. > :14:03.with the team. Do you think we will find some that
:14:03. > :14:06.are worth investing in? To put up the cash for? Yes. Definitely.
:14:06. > :14:12.That is why the process is important. You sift through those
:14:12. > :14:16.who want to use it as a hobby, and those who want it as a business.
:14:16. > :14:21.There are the rough diamonds that need the help too.
:14:21. > :14:25.Yes. Every single big business started with a couple of people and
:14:25. > :14:28.a small idea. But finding the three big ideas is
:14:28. > :14:34.a tall order. We have a lot of work to do.
:14:34. > :14:40.Fortunately, we have a boat-load of people left to see.
:14:40. > :14:44.While I am worried, I still am optimistic as I know how it works.
:14:44. > :14:50.You can see ten duff ones then one you get excited B I have to get out
:14:50. > :14:55.there and find them. First to pitch a are two nervous
:14:55. > :15:00.boys, but there is a twist. So, the whole set here.
:15:00. > :15:08.They are doing it in front of Richard's business partners.
:15:08. > :15:13.We are Jeff and Adam. This is Twist. A healthy fast-food restaurant that
:15:13. > :15:20.offers the client the chance to create their own pasta pot. We have
:15:20. > :15:28.repeat customers, it proves an established market in Huddersfield.
:15:28. > :15:34.Did you say Huddersfield? Yes. That's where I am from! You are
:15:34. > :15:38.probably related! (would you like to try some? What is the story? You
:15:38. > :15:44.met at college? We met at university.
:15:44. > :15:51.Did you leave university? Yes. That is a good effort. It takes
:15:51. > :15:54.some money. Where did you get the starting money from? With the Twist,
:15:54. > :15:59.we are funded by ourselves and the bank, but that will limit the
:15:59. > :16:03.quality of the equipment that we make this with. With the investment
:16:03. > :16:09.from yourself we would like to give the customer a consistent product.
:16:09. > :16:13.What do you think, guys? Is it OK? Very tasty.
:16:13. > :16:23.We have to get it up out of student food mode. Is there something to
:16:23. > :16:24.
:16:24. > :16:29.sex it up a bit? We are doing lasagnas. We are also do pasta
:16:29. > :16:33.bakes. Although they can be done, we can't do them as quickly at the
:16:33. > :16:37.moment. Twista Pasta Bar. They are
:16:38. > :16:43.entrepreneurs. They are getting out there, they are making something
:16:43. > :16:49.happen. I am having a whoosh at the moment it is all it takes. You only
:16:49. > :16:55.need one. It is like panning for gold. You get a load of silt, then
:16:55. > :17:01.what is that sparkling thing? It turns out it is a couple from
:17:01. > :17:10.Huddersfield! But what about this bloke from Essex? He has brought
:17:10. > :17:17.along his business partner, Pop... Are you Olly Pop.? Yes, I'm Olly,
:17:17. > :17:22.Pop is a balloon. We are an Olly Pop. Do you have a film? I have.
:17:22. > :17:29.We get messy. We dress up. We have lots of fun.
:17:29. > :17:37.OK. I get it. I mean, what do I think? I think...
:17:37. > :17:41.It's amazing? It is brilliant, I'm in? How do I invest on that?
:17:41. > :17:47.talk about a pilot. So I would be funding the pilot. I
:17:47. > :17:53.don't think that is investable. That is like me paying to help you
:17:53. > :17:57.write the business plan. Sorry to be blunt. I believe in you as an
:17:57. > :18:06.investor, but I can't invest in you and the pilot tape.
:18:06. > :18:11.Good luck, mate. I think I did OK. Yeah, no, it didn't go OK! As
:18:11. > :18:15.Richard rapidly runs out of time to hear the pitches. Some people are
:18:15. > :18:20.resorting to extraordinary measures to get attention.
:18:21. > :18:25.We have the tools to get into your car. I have eaten a lot of cheese!
:18:25. > :18:31.I really honestly think that the Prime Minister should come here and
:18:31. > :18:39.just see the young British talent that there is in this country.
:18:39. > :18:44.Finger s crossed, he's enjoyed our pie! Why is that funny? I don't
:18:44. > :18:49.know! Richard's last pitch of the day comes from a determined fashion
:18:49. > :18:55.graduate, Lily. I'm Lily.
:18:55. > :19:02.Tell me about this It is a quality women's sports brand but fashion
:19:02. > :19:08.led. So a lower price point too. Where do I buy it? I am going to
:19:08. > :19:12.sell it online. I have spoken to young designers,
:19:12. > :19:17.they are interested in it. We have done a website with the money and
:19:17. > :19:21.started to sell from that. It is brilliantly exclueted. A
:19:21. > :19:28.combination of street and sports way.
:19:28. > :19:34.It is like a future version of Stella McCartney. These lines are
:19:34. > :19:37.hard to execute. On her jacket, this is hard to execute. The
:19:37. > :19:41.manufactures that we use can do this. So this is great.
:19:41. > :19:47.I think it is a really good idea. Thank you very much.
:19:47. > :19:54.Thank you for coming in. She certainly had the gift of the
:19:54. > :20:00.gab, but will Richard make Project Lexyi one of his magic three?
:20:00. > :20:07.anyone meet Lexi? Yes, amazing. Performance sport and fashion has
:20:07. > :20:12.been done Sweaty Bety, Stella McCartney, but no-one has done it
:20:13. > :20:18.at a younger Top Shop, funky. The design was amazing.
:20:18. > :20:28.After a fun and frantic day of pitching, the hundreds of hopefuls
:20:28. > :20:29.
:20:29. > :20:32.start to make their way home. We're going to go! And Richard is
:20:32. > :20:40.left alone to decide which three ventures he is willing to take a
:20:40. > :20:43.risk on. To go from the big long list and
:20:44. > :20:51.get down to a much shorter list, that is hard.
:20:51. > :20:55.It is harder than I thought it was going to be.
:20:55. > :21:05.Business, the businesses here, mainly I have say no to them. You
:21:05. > :21:14.
:21:14. > :21:20.have to find the ones you really A few days after the expo and
:21:21. > :21:25.Richard's finally picked his top three, who he know -- now wants to
:21:25. > :21:29.meet. What he has not worked out is how much seed capital he wants to
:21:29. > :21:33.give them. The seed capital is a little bit of
:21:33. > :21:42.money to give them to help them get started. It comes down to how much
:21:42. > :21:52.they want and what they use it for. Richard has set aside up to lbs 500
:21:52. > :21:56.
:21:56. > :22:03.,000, but who will be the first to prise it off him. --? First up it
:22:03. > :22:09.is Ross. He is an energetic graduate for Loughborough
:22:09. > :22:13.University. Ever since being a kid I've been making stuff, going on
:22:13. > :22:19.adventures, plotting to start up crazy businesses and go and take
:22:19. > :22:25.over the world. Before I started university I was hit by a white van,
:22:25. > :22:29.I broke my leg quite severely. I was really lucky to survive that. I
:22:29. > :22:33.use that as motivation to drive me forwards. I feel like I need to do
:22:33. > :22:38.something great and I need to do something big.
:22:38. > :22:42.I'm pretty sure you have gone past the shops, there, Ross.
:22:42. > :22:47.Do you have a sense of the market size for this thing? In my eyes
:22:47. > :22:52.there are two markets. The life- saving market, but how I have
:22:52. > :22:57.designed this is to have it in two halves to use the chassis and the
:22:57. > :23:01.motorand the hull and then have different lids so you can have a
:23:01. > :23:07.recreational toy or the life-saving version.
:23:07. > :23:13.OK. I love this and I'm nervous about it, but I would rather play
:23:13. > :23:18.to the upside rather than worry about the downside. So give me a
:23:18. > :23:23.sense of how much money you need? The initially seed capital I would
:23:23. > :23:28.need to make the next prototype. How much? About �3,000.
:23:28. > :23:34.I'm leap to do that. I would need to see real evidence of demand from
:23:34. > :23:39.life guard services. Sure. Well done, mate. We will be talking.
:23:39. > :23:43.Cheers. It is just great to hear someone like Richard who is
:23:43. > :23:47.enthusiastic about the idea, to believe in it, really. So, yes,
:23:47. > :23:57.great. One day, two places to go. Who is
:23:57. > :24:02.next? It's Twist. Two boys, one healthy fast-food vision.
:24:02. > :24:08.Sports mad Adam and Jeff are students at Huddersfield university,
:24:08. > :24:15.like men everywhere, they only have one thing on their minds? How can I
:24:15. > :24:19.make pasta quickly? What? I met Jeff out on a night out. I met his
:24:19. > :24:25.twin brother. We had a bit of a disagreement.
:24:25. > :24:29.He was head-but theing people. there a right wake to take a head-
:24:29. > :24:34.but the. I went to Jeff and we started to
:24:34. > :24:39.get on. We knew we would work together. It was just finding
:24:39. > :24:46.something to work on. Give me a sense of what money you
:24:46. > :24:54.want now and what it would be used for? We really want the �5,000.
:24:54. > :24:57.I don't think anybody doesn't want that? It will ensure that our
:24:57. > :25:03.customers receive a consistent service.
:25:03. > :25:08.I'm not going to give you the full �5,000, but I will put in �3,000.
:25:08. > :25:13.My concern is the quality. Iate at the show what I cook at home. You
:25:13. > :25:17.have to get above that level -- I ate.
:25:17. > :25:22.Secondly, I want a understanding of where it is pitched in the market.
:25:22. > :25:32.If you can't do that, it will be the end of me being a part of your
:25:32. > :25:37.business. Alright? Good luck with it all.
:25:37. > :25:42.Get in! Yeah, get in! There is one spot remaining. The person to fill
:25:42. > :25:50.it is at the other end of the country. It is sportswear designer,
:25:50. > :25:55.Lily. Hello? Hello is that Lily? Yae
:25:55. > :26:03.it is. Cornwall, better known for the
:26:03. > :26:09.pasty prow yes, sir, than the pasty couture it is home to Lily and her
:26:09. > :26:15.sports brand Lexi. Since leaving university I have
:26:15. > :26:20.worked in training and designing kit for the referee's kit for the
:26:20. > :26:24.Premier League. I have worked for Manchester City. I think to give up
:26:24. > :26:29.a graduate job where you are well- paid, in a recession, that is
:26:29. > :26:35.ridiculous, who would do that? Only a stupid person would do that.
:26:35. > :26:42.But Lily is not stupid. Ambitious, yes, but definitely not stupid.
:26:42. > :26:47.When this company succeeds, which it will, do and I end up employing
:26:47. > :26:53.mum, and I will do, she is not working on design, mum puts
:26:53. > :26:59.feathers on things and fur. Lily told me when she was eight that she
:26:59. > :27:05.was not going to just abdesigner, but she was going to have an empire.
:27:05. > :27:11.We are counting on that! How much money would you think on getting
:27:11. > :27:17.and what do you think of investing it on? I would like �2,000 for
:27:17. > :27:21.samples. �1,000 for a photo shoot and a further �1,000 would be, I
:27:21. > :27:24.guess you could umbrella it as branding, but I would Tuesday for
:27:24. > :27:28.the website. The most important thing is the
:27:28. > :27:32.product. Getting the samples made and getting them in front of buyers
:27:32. > :27:42.is more important than to be focusing on building a social
:27:42. > :27:46.platform on a website. If you are happy taking �2 ,000, sorry �2,800,
:27:46. > :27:51.and get the samples and get the presentation out there in front of
:27:51. > :27:55.people. I would like to support that. That sounds great.
:27:55. > :28:02.For that I want to see a proper, credible business plan and that
:28:02. > :28:07.your designs translate into the sales. Totaly! Alright. We're in
:28:08. > :28:13.business. Brilliant have a great day. Oh, crap.
:28:13. > :28:19.Oh, my God. Did I mention I don't know how to run a business?!
:28:19. > :28:25.Actually, she's not even joking. Lily, like the others has six weeks
:28:25. > :28:30.to learn how o to -- how to be her own boss.
:28:30. > :28:36.This week, I know about the food, the others I know less about
:28:36. > :28:42.engineer and fashion, but I am keen to learn. All of them have lots
:28:42. > :28:50.ambition, but they have to persuade me on that the ambition for me to
:28:50. > :28:54.be able to invest. Loughborough, Ross, Richard grave
:28:54. > :29:00.him �3,000 for the prototype for the life-saving device and to ask
:29:00. > :29:04.him to prove there is is a market for it. So Ross calls the royal
:29:04. > :29:10.national lifeboat institute. The last use of the product is has
:29:10. > :29:14.developed on a lot since then. If, I wonder if you can give me that
:29:14. > :29:24.opportunity to show it to you, to talk you through it and we can take
:29:24. > :29:25.
:29:25. > :29:35.it from there? Whether it is yourself or somebody else with the
:29:35. > :29:36.
:29:36. > :29:41.RN lifplt that I can speak to? RNLI.
:29:41. > :29:46.It doesn't sound like it is going well.
:29:46. > :29:50.Cheers, Rob. Goodbye. That was a bit of a disappointing phone call.
:29:50. > :29:55.He was basically saying that he thinks that the market is better in
:29:55. > :30:00.the recreational sector. It is not something that the RNLI are
:30:00. > :30:08.interested in at this time. Disappointing it is a Titanic
:30:08. > :30:13.disaster, Ross, but he is not sunk yet. He decides to switch focus and
:30:13. > :30:20.finish the prototype. He consultants John Tyra about the
:30:20. > :30:25.design. He could do with a boost. So, professor, what is the verdict?
:30:25. > :30:31.I'm intrigued as to why you put the prop at the front. They normally
:30:31. > :30:37.put it at the back for a good reason. How do you deal with the
:30:37. > :30:41.injured? The issues of visibility. You don't want this driving into
:30:41. > :30:46.something? We have two days left before I send it off to the
:30:46. > :30:52.manufactures. So if I move it from there to there, I have to re-design
:30:52. > :31:00.the whole thing? And... Your problem is? Oh, that could have
:31:00. > :31:06.gone better. With no market and a faulty design, it looks like Ross'
:31:06. > :31:10.rescue vehicle is dead in the water. In Huddersfield, the Twist boys
:31:10. > :31:15.have taken Richard's device and used some of the money he gave them
:31:15. > :31:19.to improve the pasta sauce. Today they are seeking the ultimate stamp
:31:19. > :31:23.of approval from one of Britain's top chefs.
:31:23. > :31:28.There are three or four sauces that I like myself. We like all of them,
:31:28. > :31:36.not three or four. No, I like four. The other two are
:31:36. > :31:46.Only four? Think bigger, lads. Aim for the stars, Michelin ones, that
:31:46. > :31:47.
:31:47. > :31:55.is! Today's tasters are Steve Smith and his chef.
:31:55. > :32:01.He cooked a pasta nicely. It is aldente. What I say with the tomato
:32:01. > :32:11.one is... Wait for it... texture is nice and the consistency
:32:11. > :32:21.of it. The only thing I get is that it tastes like... Prima vera...
:32:21. > :32:22.
:32:22. > :32:26.Tinned tomato... Hmm, that is a Gordon Ramsay-sized F-up.
:32:26. > :32:32.In Cornwall, Lily is using Richard's moan to create a sport
:32:32. > :32:37.collection in six weeks. She on the design first.
:32:37. > :32:41.It is something I have always wanted to do. It is why with
:32:41. > :32:47.Richard's help I can try this now. He has set the bar high, so I am
:32:47. > :32:53.going to push really hard. Will Lily's designs work? It will
:32:53. > :32:59.be really, really important. If it is wrong we might be screwed.
:32:59. > :33:08.Like, if it is dramatically wrong, or I hate the design, then we are
:33:08. > :33:14.up a creek without a paddle. Lily has got her friend to see how
:33:14. > :33:18.the clothes fit on a real woman. This is it, the time to make
:33:18. > :33:28.adjustments before the final samples are made up. Right, I feel
:33:28. > :33:30.
:33:30. > :33:36.sick. Hiya! Sorry, Beth, I am just going
:33:36. > :33:43.to analyse your bum! The stitching is coming through... They feel
:33:43. > :33:50.comfortable? OK? Yep. That's a bit high. Can we try to even this?
:33:50. > :33:57.Maybe I can get you a boob job? What is cheaper? You changing the
:33:57. > :34:02.pattern or a boob job? Lily clearly has lots of creative design talent,
:34:02. > :34:08.but the real question is can she create a collection in real life
:34:08. > :34:14.that people want to buy? Cautious about the way that the samples have
:34:15. > :34:19.come together, Lily faces her last design choice. The all-important
:34:19. > :34:26.logos must be attached. There is no going back once they are on.
:34:26. > :34:31.Do the small one on the right sleeve. On the back? I didn't plan
:34:31. > :34:41.these type of things. This is what you are supposed to do when you are
:34:41. > :34:44.
:34:44. > :34:48.designing, Lily! Is that straight? Oh, Christ! Blimey, anyone else
:34:48. > :34:56.feeling stressed? Lily made it through, but there is no more time
:34:56. > :35:00.now and no more money. Over in Loughborough, Ross has been
:35:00. > :35:06.hard at work with the new designs for a second prototype, but he is
:35:06. > :35:10.still without a buyer and a worried Richard summons him to London.
:35:10. > :35:15.I feel like I'm going into anything today it could be good or bad. I
:35:15. > :35:20.have no idea. So I think I just have to take things as they come
:35:20. > :35:28.today and roll with the punches. Don't worry, Ross it could be good
:35:28. > :35:33.news. In London, Richard has called on
:35:33. > :35:37.his pal, Richard Branson, to see if he can help save the water rescue
:35:37. > :35:44.vehicle. I must be getting to the age I
:35:44. > :35:51.can't get in anymore. Here we go. Little does Ross know he has two
:35:51. > :35:57.Richards for the price of one. We are going to see ASAP. He has
:35:57. > :36:02.invented a motorrised life-saving device. He is either brilliant or
:36:02. > :36:07.crazy. I can't tell which. I think anyone who starts a business from
:36:07. > :36:13.scratch, there is a thin dividing line between success and failure.
:36:13. > :36:18.I wonder if Ross will get in a pickle at the sight of Richard
:36:18. > :36:23.Branson? Good to see you. Nice to meet you, Richard.
:36:23. > :36:30.So So, you don't look like a life guard? Is that what you were doing
:36:30. > :36:36.before? That's right. I trained as a life guard at Loughborough
:36:36. > :36:39.University. Have you built a record? I have built a prototype.
:36:39. > :36:44.At the moment we are building a second prototype.
:36:44. > :36:50.I thought you were going to bring it today? No, we had to come on the
:36:50. > :36:54.train. Do the trains not allow you to carry these things? I know you
:36:54. > :36:59.are finding it difficult, you have had a couple of nos. Anyone with a
:36:59. > :37:03.good idea like this will be told by most why it is not possible. If you
:37:03. > :37:06.really believe in what you are doing you have to keep ploughing on
:37:06. > :37:12.until you find somebody who believes in you.
:37:12. > :37:19.Once you have one or two sold, the first life rescued, you can get the
:37:19. > :37:23.ball rolling. One of the challenges that I am facing is how to reach
:37:23. > :37:29.the international markets from Britain... If you painted Bondi
:37:29. > :37:34.Beach on it, I would put it on a Virgin Atlantic plane to Australia
:37:34. > :37:40.if you can go around with pictures of this on Bondi Beach with
:37:40. > :37:47.Australians endorsing it, it will be an easier sell most likely back
:37:47. > :37:51.there than here in Britain. I don't think you can get much
:37:51. > :37:58.better than Richard Branson flying it. That is great. Great to see you.
:37:58. > :38:04.Thank you for coming down. Wow! That was... By far one of the
:38:04. > :38:10.most amazing things ever to happen to me. Even just to meet him is
:38:10. > :38:15.sort of one of the best things I have done in my life so far. The
:38:15. > :38:25.only trouble is now I feel like I'm at the top. I don't know where I am
:38:25. > :38:26.
:38:26. > :38:33.going to go from here. Have you been to Bondi Beach?! No? Never
:38:33. > :38:39.been to Australia. Oh, fuck! Are you married? Yes.
:38:39. > :38:45.That's why I'm not going now! Adam and Jeff are ready to test
:38:45. > :38:49.their sauces on the good people of Yorkshire. Forks at the ready. What
:38:49. > :38:53.the boys don't know is that there is a surprise taster on the way.
:38:53. > :38:59.My concern has been over the quality of the meal that they are
:38:59. > :39:03.serving. The pasta at the expo was fine, but nothing more. You have to
:39:03. > :39:08.do better than that in this day and age.
:39:08. > :39:13.Echoing a stunt that Richard pulled when he started his Boyce, the boys
:39:13. > :39:20.put their product to the taste test. We are seeing which the public
:39:20. > :39:28.likes best. If not, we will have to revalue wait things.
:39:28. > :39:38.Brace yourselves, boys for the stampede. Hang on, we have a bite...
:39:38. > :39:41.
:39:41. > :39:47.Where is the "no tasty bin" Not a great start. Too much tomato.
:39:47. > :39:56.Not those tomatos again. Too much lime.
:39:56. > :40:02.Looks like they need a "not so tasty bin" Yes? No? You should have
:40:02. > :40:07.that in veryy testy. The yes keeps on coming. Just in
:40:07. > :40:10.time too, as the surprise taster has arrived.
:40:10. > :40:16.Hello. Hello, Richard. Fancy seeing you here.
:40:16. > :40:22.I heard you were doing this. I just thought I would pop in to try them.
:40:22. > :40:26.Help yourself. We have worked with a Michelin-star chef. This is the
:40:26. > :40:31.standard you are snefrbg This is what we have gone to the
:40:31. > :40:35.manufactures to produce, yeah. Richard is stuffing his face, too
:40:35. > :40:40.busy to comment. It is packed out.
:40:40. > :40:45.This is a indicator. The tasty bin is winning at the moment.
:40:45. > :40:49.The good people of Huddersfield have spoken, but loudly enough to
:40:49. > :40:54.convince Richard? It must be cheap pasta and a bit of extra something
:40:54. > :41:03.else. I don't know if they have found the X Factor moment yet.
:41:03. > :41:10.It is show time. Lily is photographing her collection.
:41:10. > :41:16.My boyfriend is now feeling up the model! Focus! She decided to sex up
:41:17. > :41:24.the new range by cheekily feeding in samples 6 her older work They
:41:24. > :41:30.are more high fashion. They give it an edge. So we have the new legs s
:41:30. > :41:35.on, but with a new collection top. But when she updates Richard on the
:41:35. > :41:42.process, will he love the new budget designs as much as the
:41:42. > :41:46.sexier samples? It is hard to guess what Richard is expecting. I can
:41:47. > :41:53.only fulfil what he asked me to do and hope, really.
:41:53. > :41:57.How it is going? It is crazy. Someone told me you are flat out?
:41:57. > :42:02.Yeah, I can show you the images from the photo shoot.
:42:02. > :42:06.Great. This is from the Lexi shoot. We
:42:06. > :42:13.shot in a boxing gym here. She was really kicking the hell out
:42:13. > :42:17.of the bag. Are you making those? These are from the Sri Lanka
:42:17. > :42:21.collection. I could not produce these for the level that I want to
:42:21. > :42:26.go for. They are brilliant. They are
:42:26. > :42:30.amazing shots. Amazing clothes as well? Aren't
:42:30. > :42:35.people wanting to buy these? can, but I would need more
:42:35. > :42:41.investment to start up. I would need higher margins. It is the same
:42:41. > :42:46.as any business, you can go as high and as low as you want, but it is
:42:46. > :42:52.finding the gap in the market. What you feel passionate about.
:42:52. > :42:57.Lily is sticking to her guns with the lower-priced line, but the risk
:42:57. > :43:01.is she could lose Richard. She is ultra high risk. A single
:43:01. > :43:06.person who is dead young, dooing something they have never done
:43:06. > :43:12.before. It is as risky as it gets, but I like her. She is ballsy. She
:43:12. > :43:18.does not take shit from anyone. It is refreshing to have that.
:43:18. > :43:24.She may be ballsy, but will he back her the next time they meet? With
:43:24. > :43:31.interest from Australia, courtesy of Richard Branson, Ross is ready
:43:31. > :43:38.to give his new prototype a dry hump... Sorry, I mean a dry run.
:43:38. > :43:45.Then the life guard comes on top. Sorry about this... What did you
:43:45. > :43:51.say? Sorry about this. Hold the handle here and swim with the
:43:51. > :43:57.casualty r casualty back to shore. Then the life guard goes on top
:43:57. > :44:07.again, pushes down on the board and then drives on like this.
:44:07. > :44:17.
:44:17. > :44:27.Time to get wet... Is it just me or is Ross' device getting bigger? And,
:44:27. > :44:29.
:44:29. > :44:36.oh, yeah, baby, it moves! But can is save poor Tom from drowning?
:44:36. > :44:42.Here he is, he is going to save him now. Careful of that propeller. Get
:44:42. > :44:48.him... If you want to save him. There seems to be something missing
:44:48. > :44:56.in the rescue craft here... That is the ability to rescue people.
:44:56. > :45:03.Leaving Tom for dead, Ross cruises away. Time to start thinking of a
:45:03. > :45:08.third prototype? High five! In a matter of days, these young
:45:08. > :45:13.entrepreneurs will have to sit in front of Richard and prove that
:45:13. > :45:18.they each have what it takes to be their own boss.
:45:18. > :45:22.Lily is putting the finishing touches to her portfolio, but will
:45:22. > :45:27.the budget designs make her a serious contender for cash? I think
:45:27. > :45:33.that the product is brilliant, but it is very outside of Richard's
:45:33. > :45:37.area of expertise. It is whether he feels he can be passionate about it.
:45:38. > :45:40.Ross works on his prototype and scouts the globe for more potential
:45:40. > :45:44.buyers. This looks interesting. If you
:45:44. > :45:49.can't get the funding there, come to South Africa.
:45:50. > :45:54.In the time they have left, the Twist boys must put themselves on
:45:54. > :46:00.the High Street and prove to Richard they are not just playing
:46:00. > :46:07.at pasta. I can't see myself working for
:46:07. > :46:12.someone else, making them money when we can do it ourselves. The
:46:12. > :46:16.world needs dreamers and dors, but what the world needs is someone who
:46:16. > :46:24.can do. That is what the world needs,
:46:24. > :46:29.someone who can make their business D-day. Will any of the young guns
:46:30. > :46:35.prove worthy of Richard's challenge? We have done so much in
:46:35. > :46:39.the past few weeks. It's the biggest thing we have done. Fingers
:46:39. > :46:43.crossed. I'm hoping I have done enough. Without investment my
:46:43. > :46:48.business can function. I can't make it happen. I have put everything
:46:48. > :46:55.into this. Today is perhaps the beginning of something great for me.
:46:55. > :46:59.They wait while Richard takes one last look at their business plans.
:46:59. > :47:03.This is important it is serious. It is real money. I'm not going to
:47:03. > :47:11.invest in someone because they are nice or they might be a bit of a
:47:11. > :47:15.laugh. It is business. It's a perfect opportunity for you
:47:15. > :47:19.to become a partner of hopefully one of the leading healthy food
:47:19. > :47:23.franchises in England. That is what we want to create. It will be a
:47:23. > :47:26.business that will turn over millions and make a huge amount of
:47:26. > :47:31.profit. How? Let's talk about the market? I
:47:31. > :47:35.said that I need convincing that there is a market for it? I have
:47:35. > :47:39.plotted out the top five territories where the market is
:47:39. > :47:44.biggest and where the business should hit first and market on
:47:44. > :47:49.where every life station is. have convinced me that there are
:47:49. > :47:54.lots of life guard stations in the world, but I'm not convinced that
:47:54. > :47:59.they want to buy one of those things? I had a great meeting with
:47:59. > :48:04.Dave Bamer in South Africa. He is the chairman of seven life guard
:48:04. > :48:07.stations. He is interested in being the first distribution of the
:48:07. > :48:13.product. Did he give a sense of how many
:48:13. > :48:17.units he could sell? I did not think I could push that at the
:48:17. > :48:21.conceptual stage. You said you are not good on the
:48:21. > :48:26.business side, how are you going to build a fashion business, rather
:48:26. > :48:33.than be a fashion designer? Doing the business plan has been a good
:48:33. > :48:38.learning curve for me. It is going to be an ongoing learning curve,
:48:38. > :48:41.but I am 24. So there is time. There was a difference between the
:48:41. > :48:46.original designs and the first collection. It does not look like
:48:46. > :48:51.stuff I have not seen before? are very different collections. You
:48:51. > :48:55.can see the clear angles and the lines going through. For me to
:48:55. > :49:03.produce a collection like the Sri Lankan one with prints, etc, it
:49:03. > :49:10.would have been impossible. What is it that your business is?
:49:10. > :49:16.It has changed slightly. We are now a healthy fast food chain. We feel
:49:16. > :49:25.that pasta is the major selling point. There is no other outlet out
:49:25. > :49:31.there that offers hot pasta a an option.. You said you were a
:49:31. > :49:41.healthy pasta chain. You said you were a sandwich bar with that USP,
:49:41. > :49:42.
:49:42. > :49:48.which is it? The same to be a fast food chain but the core is the
:49:48. > :49:53.health with the pasta and the salads.
:49:53. > :49:57.I can't work out which is which, but you are going to basically sell
:49:57. > :50:01.hot food from cold food establishments? Yep.
:50:01. > :50:07.Can we talk about you? You would be doing this by yourself, would you?
:50:07. > :50:10.That's right. I think we need to put together a small team but yes,
:50:10. > :50:16.it is just me. Do you think you have what it takes
:50:16. > :50:22.to sort of be the guy out there relentlessly chasing the sales and
:50:22. > :50:29.getting the deals closed? Yes, I am persistent.
:50:29. > :50:34.But you were nervous about asking David about the unit numbers you
:50:34. > :50:39.should sell? Yes, you are right. To get to have the first collection,
:50:39. > :50:45.to have more of the signature pieces, what does that cost? Well,
:50:45. > :50:51.I have asked for �50,000. How much does it take to get that first
:50:51. > :50:56.collection to be business-ready? couldn't tell you like that.
:50:56. > :51:01.I've put in for �15,000 for product development and �15,000 for
:51:01. > :51:08.manufacturing. We would use that, but it depends on the factory. It
:51:08. > :51:12.depends how many pieces I utilise the print across. How much fabric
:51:12. > :51:17.you use, it depends it is difficult to give you a figure.
:51:17. > :51:24.I want to work out and work out what I thing is going on. There is
:51:24. > :51:34.new information that has come to light. Only a few minutes.
:51:34. > :51:44.answer is "yes", Richard. Just helping you out there.
:51:44. > :51:50.
:51:50. > :51:56.We just need that break... These, guys, right, they have done more at
:51:56. > :52:01.the age of 21 than I have, but they are coming to me and saying that
:52:01. > :52:05.they want to and will be able to build a whole change and franchise
:52:05. > :52:12.of healthy fast food restaurants. They have not proved that. He has
:52:12. > :52:18.covered a lot of ground in a short period of time. He has a second
:52:18. > :52:25.prototype. He has tested. He can make things happen. He has some
:52:25. > :52:28.seriously good talents. Her execution has not been
:52:28. > :52:32.brilliant. She's quite a sort of a strong person, part of that is
:52:32. > :52:36.brilliant, part of that is a bit of a worry.
:52:36. > :52:46.It's going back to do I believe in the potential? Is it worth
:52:46. > :52:52.
:52:52. > :52:57.investing more money to give her a Right, boys. Sorry to keep you
:52:57. > :53:01.waiting. That's OK. We are just a nervous wreck! Don't be. I
:53:01. > :53:05.understand it is important. It is a tough decision. You really strike
:53:05. > :53:15.me as guys that mean it. You are receptive and responsive to the
:53:15. > :53:23.
:53:23. > :53:32.feedback. You seem to be on the upward trend... So here's the deal,
:53:32. > :53:39.right? I will invest �50,000... Yes! Fantastic stuff. Thank you
:53:39. > :53:47.very much. Alright? Get in! Well done. We're in business.
:53:47. > :53:51.Thank you very much. See you. Good luck. So the next
:53:52. > :53:58.time I will see you will have all of the pasta in Huddersfield.
:53:58. > :54:05.has not sunk in properly. So happy. So, so happy. We have his expertise
:54:05. > :54:09.on board now. What more can we say? It will be incredible now.
:54:10. > :54:15.Ever since I was about 16, I knew I wanted to own a business. We have
:54:15. > :54:20.progressed it so much. This is just another level.
:54:20. > :54:30.They strike me as guys that will do a good, solid job. They are really
:54:30. > :54:31.
:54:31. > :54:37.young. They are ahead of the curve of what most students have achieved.
:54:37. > :54:43.Hi, mate. Sorry to keep you waiting. That's OK.
:54:43. > :54:49.So, when I look at the actual investment opportunity it is a hard
:54:49. > :54:54.one. Actually it will take a lot of money to get up front, to get to
:54:55. > :55:00.sell the very first one. Sure. If the market is not there, that is
:55:00. > :55:05.a sunk cost we can never get back. So I have to ask myself, do I
:55:05. > :55:10.believe that the money to be invested to get it from prototype
:55:10. > :55:20.to real life and I really need to believe that to a high level of
:55:20. > :55:24.
:55:24. > :55:31.confidence to be able to invest... And the trouble is, mate, I don't.
:55:31. > :55:35.So, I'm afraid I'm not going to invest.
:55:35. > :55:40.OK. No worries. Listen, thank you for everything.
:55:40. > :55:45.Yeah, thank you. I really appreciate you time. This six weeks
:55:45. > :55:49.for me, I really showed myself that I will do whatever it takes and
:55:49. > :55:59.that has made me realise, well, maybe if I can do this, well, what
:55:59. > :56:02.
:56:02. > :56:12.else can I do? OK. So, I think that the stuff you have manifest sod far,
:56:12. > :56:18.
:56:18. > :56:23.I think it's good and I think you are capable of doing great.
:56:23. > :56:32.I will invest �25,000 to give you the opportunity to get your first
:56:32. > :56:41.collection to be the best representation of what your e
:56:41. > :56:48.thousand -- ethos of how it works. What is it with you, giving me half
:56:48. > :56:53.the money all the time?! I want you to do your best. Well, let's not be
:56:53. > :57:00.hasty here. OK. OK. Deal? Deal.
:57:00. > :57:08.All right, nice one. Well done. Next time I'm asking you for
:57:08. > :57:13.�100,000. Your poker face is quite good! At
:57:13. > :57:19.least I now have a foundation to build on. So positive.
:57:19. > :57:25.I have to say, I just was not expecting that as a reaction. Hail
:57:25. > :57:33.airous! It was basically... It kind of make these like her even more,
:57:34. > :57:38.weirdly. She's a strong lady! Nothing, and I
:57:38. > :57:44.really mean this, nothing would make me happier than if she nail it
:57:44. > :57:47.is with the design and gets a load of customers and I invest in her
:57:47. > :57:56.really being able to grow the business. I'm giving her the money
:57:56. > :58:01.to get to the next stage. The rest is up to her.
:58:01. > :58:05.Next time... Well done. Richard kicks around another three
:58:05. > :58:10.ideas... That's a rubbish thing for me to give money for.
:58:10. > :58:15.He make as shock decision... giving you the guy that passed up
