The economy may have contracted but the same cant be said for the Dragons business portfolios as they pledge more money than ever before to cash-strapped entrepreneurs. But its still their own hard-earned fortunes they are risking and anyone expecting an easy time is in for a rude awakening at the top of those famous stairs this week. Its not easy when Deborah Meaden declares youve given possibly the worst pitch in the Den, but thats just what Manchester inventor Samantha Gore heard last series as her pitch fell apart. That hasnt deterred her though, and shes back again with another addition to her crime prevention business and continued dreams of investment. Fellow Mancunian and classical pianist David Schofield is hoping his youthful take on the classics will get a Dragon to finance his future recordings.

ts a vintage Den this time as London-based Angela Newman invites the multimillionaires to invest in her business which celebrates the glamour of a bygone era. The Dragons like their fair share of glamour, but do they like it enough to invest? Another hopeful is John Jackson, a 72-year-old inventor from Essex who thinks the humble washing line needs a modern day revamp and is hoping the Dragons agree. And have engineers Robert Leeds and Guy Seymour come up with the perfect investment for the multimillionaire who has everything? Its an ideal fit for their luxury yachts, the biggest product ever seen in the Den and one of the largest investments ever requested. But will the entrepreneurial duo sink or swim?

The Dragons have shown willingness to invest in the best business deals offered them, but they wont risk their cash on those without money-making potential. More entrepreneurs ascend the stairs to see what the multimillionaires will make of their idea. There is an unusual visitor in this episode, as Monty the falcon accompanies Layla Bennett from Powys into the Den. The bird plays an important part in Laylas pest control business - but will he help her hunt down an investment?

Tonights episode sees Londoners Krissy Sims and Kerry OBrien AKA DJ Trickles and Lady MC enter the Den with a state-of-the-art turntable extravaganza in the back of their 4x4. The Dragons are often happy to demo a product but it is the business and how it makes money that remains their ultimate concern.

With further interviews and reaction available via the Red Button at the end of the programme.

Some of the nations budding businessmen and women have already entered the Den, but so far not all of their products and inventions have received a rave reception. This episode sees more intrepid entrepreneurs climb the stairs in the hope of realising their own investment dreams. Numbers are crunched and ideas are interrogated as the five fearsome Dragons weigh up which side of the coin their decision to invest will come down on. A former disc jockey has a strategy, dress to impress to catch the attention of an investor. The DJ may have worn a DJ, but is that all it takes to part a Dragon from their cash? A Londoner hopes to alleviate a common worry for holidaymakers by locking up their valuables, but with just 5 per cent of his company on offer, can he guarantee a valuable return? Monterrey-born Marcela Flores Newburn pitches her Mexican food range complete with a full mariachi band, another budding entrepreneur asks the multi-millionaires to think of their homes, not as houses but as a source of income, and a former hairdresser has a product that makes money from thin air, but does he have the business plan to match?

Profitability and bottom line are back on the agenda as more business proposals are pitched to five of the most successful commercial brains in Britain. Each of the entrepreneurs entering the Den are hoping to convince the multimillionaires that their business is worthy of financial backing, but as well as a good product it takes steel and determination to secure the Dragons cash.

One multimillionaire also gets their feet wet while trying out a beauty treatment administered by fish, but will a bit of Dragon pampering lead to a clean sweep of offers?

Two entrepreneurs have a plan to revolutionise the UK housing market, while another pair hope their unusual garden pods will persuade the Dragons to part with their cash.
