Laser-assisted bespoke tailoring, a plastic vest for gym-goers and a travel play-kit.

Entrepreneurs pitch to the multimillionaire investors. John Buni pitches his modern take on tailoring, which uses a laser body scanner to collect measurements for bespoke suits.

Another set of hopeful entrepreneurs pitch to the multimillionaire investors.

Young entrepreneur John Buni from London brings futuristic laser beams into the Den. His modern take on tailoring uses a laser body scanner to collect measurements for bespoke suits. The Dragons know all about fine tailoring, but will this idea measure up?

A father and son duo have invented a plastic vest to help gym-goers lose weight as they work up a sweat. Now they want the Dragons to see the potential in their idea and help them gain the extra pounds they need in investment.

Plus, a website venture supplying vehicle accessories is ready for the extra push a Dragon investor can bring, and serial inventor Solvej Biddle brings her latest innovative idea into the Den. It's a backpack that converts into a travel play-kit for children - a tough market to crack, but she thinks she has what it takes to convince a Dragon to help fast-track it to success.
