The Dragons are back

Hurrah - Dragon's Den is back on BBC2. Boo - they have dropped Richard the nice Aussie bloke presumably as he was likable and polite to investors and had an investing strategy whereby he actually was putting money into businesses. I mean how was poor Duncan supposed to compete with that.

There are new title scenes in a fetching red and the Dragons have all got nice new hair cuts and Duncan has been told to wear a tie. Presumably because new Dragon James has a hairy chest and is sure as hell going to show it off. Given that poor old Theo Paphitis dare not spend any more of his children's inheritance on such extravagant items as ties, someone had to wear one. And they have let Peter Jones continue. Presumably he begged them for a second chance after Tycoon flopped in the summer. Anyway a couple of them made investments but perhaps the most remarkable thing was what happened to Peter's hair during the hour. It started long and floppy but by 9.30pm it was short and appeared to have been tinted a lovely shade of blond. But by 9.55 the fringe was back. Watch the next episode and you will no doubt see him grow a beard in the first 30 minutes only to return to his baby faced shiny look by the end of the hour.
