Hello Dragons Den ... Lightbulb moment footfall we need an indoor market delicatessen... Food hall and well Chairs ! Thank you you in advance ! Net loss Equals ... 20 percent dividend by 5 😊
I do love when people come in with an insane valuation and Peter Jones immediately asks about it, because you can tell from his voice that he knows it's baseless. He's just playing with his food.
Rory went home and drank Stella. Then told Fiona what he really thinks of her. After that he immediately got his map out and targeted the best spots for seaweed.
Lmfaoooo I just watched it again after a few months and this is what stuck out to me too, the silence/stare of the dragons followed by peters thanks Rory is so good
and making it from something that occurs naturally and he gets other people to collect . He is no idiot , but played the ' simple man ' routine really well which made him look like a nice guy at the side of Fiona .
My jaw dropped when she said 3%. How does anyone not coming into the Den not realise that valuing their company at 3.3 million quid is going to be fatal? Nick Jenkins' shocked look said it all.
It's so cute how he says that in the pitch of all places. Like yeah it's technically true but you're meant to be selling your idea to them not making them doubt you lmao
That was a man who was just tricked into a situation and didn’t realize until it was far far too late. I bet he started looking for a different partner to sell seaweed too immediately 😂
@@Thelostgoldhunters Yeah either that or he must have the most expensive seaweed harvesting system there is....perhaps he uses a chartered cargo seaplane with a net, captained by Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger?
Peter: ‘Net profit…’ Rory: ‘Net? I have a net. The profit would be lots of seaweed.’ Peter: ‘No, Rory. Net profit.’ Debora: ‘Peter has been very patient. If you said that to me …’ Rory: ‘I’m patient too. I catch seaweed at high tide.’ Peter: ‘How have you raised £300,000.’ Rory: ‘I usually just lift the net up and raise it that way.’ All dragons: ‘I’m out.’ Rory: ‘Trout.’
Ryan Morgan just so you know it was humour....Unless Rory’s team of gatherers work for nothing... P.S. The Scottish coastline is littered with rocks, trawlers don’t harvest seaweed....or trawl over rocky ground, it’s gathered at the shoreline at low water by hand. Cost of which is wages only.
I just feel like Deborah is always looking for some bullshit reason NOT to invest. Never seen her invest in anything. And most of the time is the first one out.
I think a lot of people commenting don't realise that you actually have to slay seaweed before harvesting. A humble seaweed hunter will track a target for days before closing in to battle in hand to hand combat in a barechested duel to the death.
t .byrne she acted like she knew then tried to have have a valuation of 3 mill. 350 k and sold 200 k that’s kind of shows she has no idea of business lol
She clearly acts very offended at every question that is asked. So yeah, she is being defensive. "What do you mean how did I raise 350k" "Of course I know what gross profit is"
The man. The myth. The legend. When we are out here dragging our bored bodies to dusty offices and dim factories, Rory is out there living the dream hunting seaweed. We can only hope to rise to the height of his ankles.
Well, wouldn't you prefer the company of seaweed to that of the dead-eyed Fiona, too? Even talking to the limpets would be preferable to returning to base!
What he really meant was ' why did I let this woman talk me into going on national TV and get humiliated ? ' , although in fairness not humiliated as much as Fiona was . Rory looked like he wished the ground had swallowed him up from very early on and despite him saying what a strong woman Fiona was his body language in the lift afterwards spoke volumes . I bet they had a right shouting match once the cameras were off .
Depends. For example, she may have spent £350,000 on the seaweed but £250,000 of that seaweed could be unsold (i.e. stock). I am afraid she didn't know her financials.
Dragons: What's your gross profit? Rory: Seaweed Dragons: ok and what's your margin value? Rory: Seaweed Dragons: could you explain in depth your operating assets Rory: Of course, seaweed Dragons: Thank you Rory Rory: SEEWEED!
When Rory told Fiona in the lift that she'd been badly advised then turned his back on her it felt like I was watching the final scene in a bad TV drama.
Noble calling, seaweed Hunter. Nothing to be ashamed of. Scavenger, forager, Hunter. Why stop at Hunter? Seaweed Master... now there’s a title. But I would prefer Seaweed Lord.
It's yet another pitch where you find yourself asking, "Have these people ever watched Dragon's Den before going on it? How can they not be ready to answer the questions it's obvious the Dragons will ask?!"
Getting defensive is pretty normal given a fight or flight response. Unfortunately, if she'd have gone in more prepared, she wouldn't have been triggered in to feeling that way. That's the secret.

Isn't that just initial costs? I'm so confused as to why Peter got angry so quickly. She immediately made it clear that they were at a loss at the moment
@@rockhardsolid3394 my bad lol. I'm as dumb as her. I thought gross profit was the same as net profit. So I was confused as to why someone would be annoyed at a net loss so early on.
It's simple. Just know your shit. And be reasonable with your valuation. Even if your company is a little joke novelty product, if it makes money, and you are asking for a reasonable valuation, they won't laugh at you and might even invest lol
the thing is if I was making money I wouldnt be taking a dragons investment anyway, as I wouldnt need it. The only reason I would be on the show at that point is for the publicity. What I want to see is a dragon investing in something that doesnt make profit, have the foresight to predict a company will make it rather than investing in a company thats already making it.

They did make sense. Anyone with an ounce if sense can see she was responding in the appropriate way to rudeness and bullying from rich dicks. Her company is very successful now.

Jen - "I want you come on the telly with me to talk about the business Rory" Rory - "Why me? All I do is pick bloody seaweed and forget to shave my nose"
Reverse psychology!!!! She makes people think they're getting the better deal, when in fact she just knows... Just dont ask her anything about Nets and being Gross, she probably leaves all that to Rory.... And that leads onto Rory with the diamond encrusted seaweed nudge nudge wink wink... Criminal Mastermind in the making there
@@TheTraveler2222 you cant run a business with no gross profit, gross profit is Total sales-total cost of sales, if the gross profit is already a loss the business will never make a profit. Net Profit on the other hand can and often does start out as a loss, as net profit includes all the operating costs, as Net Profit will hopefully become positive once you make enough sales to cover all the other business costs, but gross profit must always be positive.
I came to the comments for this, I think how they spoke to her was uncalled for, she was just nervous and unprepared. I don't think she's a bad person.
I love the “faux confusion” that both Peter & Deborah do (inc Deborah’s confused head turn at 2:06) when it comes to numbers underpinning inflated valuations.
Lol her headmistress remark! I cant figure it out whether shes just nervous or really didnt know what gross take means or she doesnt want to give out too much or she suddenly had a flashback from men trying to bend her over.
She went, asked for money, and got some. I thought that was pretty obvious. She did say this was her second round of fundraising. What Peter should have asked was "how business savvy weren't your previous investors if they accepted your previous valuation?"
Shark Tank is really overly dramatised and unrealistic. Dragon's Den strikes a good balance in my opinion. Occasionally I feel the music and camera work are a bit over the top but you can look past those things.
Thing is, American entrepreneurs tend to be open, fluent and polished, whereas British ones generally don't. You have the better business people, but we have the more entertaining ones!

Excellent work. For some reason that was hilarious.
poor fucker is mortified

I bet Rory hates seaweed now 😂
Peter "what's your net profit?"
Rory "Net? I use a net. I use a net to catch seaweed. I love seaweed."
Peter ".........."
Rory "Sea.Weed."
Fish, I am out
50% sea 50% weed
No seaweed, no sales, no profit!
Lol
She get products under but she high
No Seaweed, No Sales, No Profit..Thank you very much - Rory 2019
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol - It's almost like a thinly veiled threat to Fiona. You better cough up ho or no seaweed, no sales, no profit.
😂😂
Why did he even say that ? It comes across as a rather negative statement
Rory saying "I've got the best job in the world, I get to gather seaweed" with absolutely ZERO irony or sarcasm is the best part of this video.🤣🤣
Definitely cringe worthy!
You've been badly advised.
I was looking for this comment 😅😅
That smug/almost emotional smile on his face afterwards was hilarious yet actually rather sad the poor guy lol
It's like a job interview answer haha, my dream is to gather seaweed!
Net profit??? We don't use nets to collect seaweed.
Lol
Good one
He said he did though... "We Cast a wide net"
good one
hahahahaha
"What is GROSS PROFIT?"

Peter was so brutal in this one. I guess sometimes he gets bored and decides to wind up a pitcher before eviscerating them.
"I've got the best job in the world. My role is to get seaweed for Fiona."
Well, he got 300k for his seaweed. He really does have a great job.
Isn't that the plot of Shrek?
Just as well he rehearsed that line properly...
"My job is to get to see Fiona..."

The hair on Rory's nose works like a radar for seaweed. He dips his nose in the water and those little antennae pick up the vibration of the seaweed.
😂😂
I died laughing
Omg dude I literally choked lol
I almost reported this comment for choking me to death.
Metal 😂😂
To all the people making Rory jokes, he’s the one getting all the money because cost of goods is nearly 75% more than turnover. That guys a genius.
and making it from something that occurs naturally and he gets other people to collect . He is no idiot , but played the ' simple man ' routine really well which made him look like a nice guy at the side of Fiona .
Scooby1 whilst slipping in the line “no seaweed, no sales, no profit... ^*thinks*^ for me”
and at the end he says "You've been badly advised" lmaooooo
He probably told her to reject the offer, so he could keep ripping her off lol.
Are you all sure Rory is the culprit?
I think she pissed them all off immediately when she said 3% 🤦

Thank you I've been desperate to apply my tweezers ... bless him...very sympathetic to his plight...
Glad someone else noticed the hairy nose.

One of the most underrated comments in TH-cam history
😭😭😭
Hahaha that made me howl 😂
Yeah...it's this big 4:02
Hahaha
Rory got proper excited when they were talking about net profit like “oooooh I use a net!”
😂 😂 😂
😂
😂
😂😂 This was an absolute savage of a comment mate!
@@peeder1417 thanks looking ppp
The comments section is fkn fantastic I hope Rory sees this and writes a book
Everyone is talking about how rude she was but...
£100,000 pounds...for 3%?!
Umar IFL Umar lmao
Exactly! Soon as she said that i rolled my eyes! She hasnt gotba clue what she's doing.
Neo TheOne ikr
Yeahh my eyebrows shot up
Well tbf if she asked for £1 for 99% of the business they'd offer 20p for 100%. That said her business is a moneypit imo.
Educational for the bloke because he's just realised who he is working with 😂
@@hf7iqheh I stopped watching before that. Just watched it all 👍
@@rickysingh616 i wonder if he has money tied up as well.
@@nopy99 I reckon he did for the way he reacted at the end of the clip.
Seems like a successful company - ambitious. remember Amazon lost millions before they made a profit. Kinda small minded investors. Is she defensive??
@@rickysingh616 yep. He said something like "high risk. I have been badly advised".
she sold $350k of seaweed for $200k? Hey how many ppl can say they've done that?
She’s a born business women.
the art of the deal ;)
Reverse psychology!!!! She makes people think they're getting the better deal, when in fact she just knows... Just dont ask her anything about Nets and being Gross, she probably leaves all that to Rory.... And that leads onto Rory with the diamond encrusted seaweed nudge nudge wink wink... Criminal Mastermind in the making there
Yes, but that's why she said there was no gross profit? Did I miss something?
@@TheTraveler2222 you cant run a business with no gross profit, gross profit is Total sales-total cost of sales, if the gross profit is already a loss the business will never make a profit. Net Profit on the other hand can and often does start out as a loss, as net profit includes all the operating costs, as Net Profit will hopefully become positive once you make enough sales to cover all the other business costs, but gross profit must always be positive.
:Casts a wide net
:has harvesters
:No seaweed, no sales, no profit
:Humble seaweed harvester
:Invaluable lesson learned
Rory: i don't give a crap what you do Fiona, as long as you keep buying seaweed from me topkek
murfad at 3 million pounds
Lol
I didn’t think she was being defensive so much as she was flustered. She just didn’t know what she was talking about.
The second Peter started speaking she immediately folded her arms and stood in an incredibly defensive way. She is not a nice person
Cringe factor on her part: 10mill..🤔😂😂😂
I came to the comments for this, I think how they spoke to her was uncalled for, she was just nervous and unprepared. I don't think she's a bad person.
To me she came off very passive aggressive
She wasnt defensive at all. Peter caught her with the gross profit thingy & she should have just come clean about not being fully prepared.
That was actually a bit painful to watch...
@@dtz1000 Hi Rory.
Pyramid Frost hi pyramid frost. Rubbish name for a rubbish boy
Same
@@dtz1000 Successful? I take it that you haven't actually looked at their audited accounts.
Where's Rory now? We need to find him and make sure he's ok. He deserves better than this.
Interviewer: What's your dream role in this company?
Me: Collecting seaweed for Fiona
Eating Fionas seeweed lol
Getting an answer out of her is like using Bing on internet explorer on a Windows Vista PC.
LMAO
I'm screeching
and its installed on an old pentium 4 laptop
😂
😂😂😂😂😂 oh my gosh your comment is GOLD. I burst out laughing so loud just now!!!
I think Rory have been getting Fiona the wrong weed 🤔
I enjoyed that comment haha:)
Lol
Hahahaha
:))) hahaa that's a good one :)
Threw my water out :D
I love the “faux confusion” that both Peter & Deborah do (inc Deborah’s confused head turn at 2:06) when it comes to numbers underpinning inflated valuations.
I agree she got defensive but I don’t feel that she was “looking for a fight”!?
Click bait
Lol her headmistress remark! I cant figure it out whether shes just nervous or really didnt know what gross take means or she doesnt want to give out too much or she suddenly had a flashback from men trying to bend her over.
"I've got the best job in the world"
"my role is to get seaweed for fiona"
If it was his business, he would have probably got the investment.
Easily one of my favourite comments on youtube
Horizon Music - then: “we’ve been ill advised” 🙄
@@brothercaleb He said, "You've been badly advised."
Nick Forde - my bad. Listened again and you’re right. Cheers 🍻
"How did you raise 350,000 pounds?"
"What do you mean, how did I raise it?"
Yeah...
she was going to explain but was cut off so yeah
that vacant death stare though
You funny.
She went, asked for money, and got some. I thought that was pretty obvious. She did say this was her second round of fundraising. What Peter should have asked was "how business savvy weren't your previous investors if they accepted your previous valuation?"
Where's the "totally pissing myself" emoji? 😆🤣😆
Touker absolutely nailed this. “Fiona - Rory: HOW ARE YOU?” 🤣🤣
Look at Sara’s notes: “Rory - seaweed” fantastic noteworthy due dilligence
So late but I couldn't help but reply, I just fell off my chair laughing at this comment!!! Lmao!!
@Alan Cogan She is fantastic :)
She's adorable.
I need to see this, timestamp?
@@AjenLarod 0:14
Poor Rory. He's gutted. He just wanted to sell some seaweed and his wife went full mental.
Not his wife. Who the hell would address his wife by her first name without saying my wife
@@h.a.6790 fact.
Yeah he works for her. At no point does it say or insinuate they are married/a couple.
Did she really go mental though?

Fiona: "Why do you want to know? What's it to you?"
🤣🤣🤣... "where am i?"
😂
Best comment on here 😂😂😂
Makes me wonder if she is autistic.
Haha that's funny. There could be a whole new TV soap opera around this pair.
This is one of those times when Peter held his temper in a tremendous chokehold and was actually being very POLITE.
Rory now picks up rubbish on the beach after Dragons Den..
He's back on food stamps
Again
more likely he's found another persona, another disguise and another mark.
He lives in the seaweed with the seaweed people and he is their messiah , what is wrong with you

@Kris Roberts yer kind of looks like he done a bit of boxing in his time.
Prob not verry good boxer tho.. lol.
Touker: "I'll give you all the money for 50%"
Rory: "He covets my precious seaweed, nasty Hobbit!"
Laughed way harder than I should have. Thank you.
Thanks for making me chuckle and learn a new word in the process.
That woman's crooked smile is incredibly creepy
Makes me shudder 🤢😶
And incredibly annoying that she smiled and clearly didn't take them seriously
And that blank stare; she's like a ghost in the depths among the seaweed

no matter how many times i watch this, i can’t stop getting embarrassed and it’s not even me making the pitch.
Peter Jones: “...thanks, Rory.”
One of my favourite parts, LMAO!!!!
Duly noted
Rory after leaving the den: "We go get seaweed now?"
As an American, I’m furious Shark Tank isn’t nearly as good as this gem of a show.
Shark Tank is really overly dramatised and unrealistic. Dragon's Den strikes a good balance in my opinion. Occasionally I feel the music and camera work are a bit over the top but you can look past those things.
Foreal tho
Idk, I like the business ideas on ST more tho.
Thing is, American entrepreneurs tend to be open, fluent and polished, whereas British ones generally don't. You have the better business people, but we have the more entertaining ones!
No because everything in American reality tv is overdramatized. UK reality tv is the best.
I come to this comment section once a day to remind myself how much of a legend Rory is.
Me too dude. Rory is a ledge.
Seaweed is the best
