BBC One - The Customer Is Always Right, Series 2, Episode 11

Featuring a smell-proof dog bag, a hand cream and a pirate-themed board game.

Customers test and score a smell-proof dog bag, a hand cream designed especially for nurses and a pirate-themed board game.

Three entrepreneurs come together to discover what our cast of customers think of their inventions.

Former theatrical agent Mandy has created a clip-on, hands-free, smell-proof dog bag carrier, with a section for clean bags and a scented section to carry any offending articles.Inspiration struck for Jonathan and Antonia after Antonia’s hands began to suffer as a result of repeated handwashing during her nursing job. The pair researched ingredients and formulas until they came up with a cream that is aimed at nurses but also works for use at home. Graphic designer Cait, a keen board game player,  roped in musician and illustrator Matt to help her dream up a swashbuckling board game set on the Cornish coast, mixing immersive pirate-themed game play with 100 unique pirate characters.
