Robbie

on BBC One London

This programme tells two stories of the kind everybody likes - success stories, how somebody got to the top -and, more intriguingly, why. As these so-different stories unfold, they show that highly successful people share the same winning capacities - hard work and dedication to a goal. Their daydreams are working blueprints.
Laura Ashley and her husband Bernard have spent 24 years building up an international enterprise from a kitchen-workshop start.
Peter Powell has - seemingly - rocketed from painting white lines on airport runways to big money by designing a revolutionary kite. But when you hear his hilarious story you find that the background was years of experiment.
