He went on dragons den , a few years back
they broke his product and said its rubbish.

Ch4News confirmed he sold over a million

They are going to Employ 15 new UK workers .

China is now a problem

I watched that Dragon's Den and I am sure it was Duncan Bannatyne or Theo (I'm more sure it was Duncan) who made the comment about him having enough luggage to pull along and he was damned sure he was doing to have to do it with his kids.

I think they are brilliant for parents and kids. Parents however might have another view

Knew it was one of those two - but it was years ago I saw it.

Yep, they completely got that one wrong - bet they are kicking themselves now - though they've been about for years now.
