Title: Britain’s Next Big Thing
Description: Series in which the buying teams of three high street giants
ask members of the public to supply them with the next
bestselling product. In episode one, an iconic department
store opens its doors to the public with a unique open day.
From 6am, over 600 people queue around the block for the
opportunity to pitch their product to the buying team led by
Buying Director Ed Burstell. But with just three minutes to
pitch their wares, only a handful will be selected to take
their products further. Amongst the hopeful fledgling
suppliers are former carpenter Tom Hopkins-Gibson, who has
travelled down from Scotland with his porcelain and wood
bowls, professor of architecture Richard Weston, who dazzles
the buyers with his unique silk scarves, and glass blower
