a record number of investments from the Dragon investors.
Ian Taylor rides into the Den with his mobile video
advertising hording on a bike. He wants to expand his
Harrogate based business into the rest of the country, but
will the Dragons see nationwide potential in his idea? One
of the Den's youngest entrepreneurs, 20-year-old Jessica
Ratcliffe, thinks she's found a way into the lucrative
computer gaming market with her online marketplace for
selling and swapping used games. Now she wants to persuade a
Dragon that they need a piece of the action. Plus another
young, but very experienced entrepreneur has an accessory
that solves a problem all parents of newborns will relate to
- how and where to change your baby's nappy in a public
environment. But will the multimillionaires recognise the
issue, and more importantly will they spot a money making
opportunity? Also, there's a round up of the highlights from
the series.

Title: Evan Loves Tax
Description: Evan Davis investigates our relationship with tax, and asks
how we have ended up trying to fund a European-style welfare
state with American-style taxes. 1. He speaks to former
chancellors Alistair Darling, Nigel Lawson and Norman Lamont
about their experience attempting to control the tax system,
and asks how well, or badly, we make big decisions about
tax. He examines why public spending has risen consistently
since the Second World War, but income tax has not risen
along with it. Evan reveals the results of a ComRes poll
which asks members of the public if they would rather see
other taxes rise than income tax, and he sheds light on how
the complexity of the tax system might impact upon
oraganised smugglers.

Title: Evan Loves Tax
Description: Evan Davis investigates our relationship with tax, and asks
how we have ended up with such a complicated tax system. 2.
He speaks to former chancellors Alistair Darling, Nigel
Lawson, Geoffrey Howe and Norman Lamont about their
experience attempting to simplify the tax system. He talks
to economists and taxmen about why the tax system is so
complicated, and what measures can be taken to simplify it.

to make such a change to the system, and the political
consequences which have forced them to reconsider.

Title: Evan Loves Tax
Description: Evan Davis investigates our relationship with tax, and asks
how we have ended up with such a complicated tax system. 3:
Evan asks how well we make decisions about tax in Britain,
from the way we vote in elections to chancellors and their
budgets. To find out, he meets four ex-chancellors: Geoffrey
Howe, Nigel Lawson, Norman Lamont and Alistair Darling. Is
the attitude of government when deciding tax policy usually
'not in front of the voters'?

Title: Can Pay, Will Pay
Description: First of two programmes in which Danny Finkelstein explores
high pay and low pay. Why has pay at the top has got so
high? Is it all about bankers' bonuses? Do bonuses even
work? And is the market working properly, or do social norms
just mean that lots of highly-paid people can't say 'no' to
lots of other highly-paid people? And he hears from
campaigners for the very lowest-paid workers who want to use
similar social norms to boost pay at the bottom. How
successfully are they persuading local authorities,
individual businesses, and central government, of their
case?

------------------------------------------
Title: Can Pay, Will Pay
Description: In the second of two programmes, Danny Finkelstein explores
how levels of pay are determined. The setting of pay levels
- one of the most important, yet often sensitive and
frequently puzzling of processes. Danny shifts his focus
away from those at the two extremes of the pay distribution
and towards the majority in the middle. He explores what
different jobs pay and why. And why sometimes people doing
very similar jobs get widely varying amounts. He asks why
train drivers earn almost twice as much as bus drivers? Why
some airline cabin crew earn much more than others? How does
a company go about deciding how much to pay staff doing
different jobs? How does a medical charity go about trying
to determine the relative pay of its shopworkers and its
scientists? Would we be happier if we knew the precise
amounts others in our workplace were earning, and would that
knowledge narrow the differential between men and women? And
why do tall people and beautiful people tend to earn more?
