Title:
Peter Jones Meets...
Description:
Peter Jones, star of Dragons’ Den, is on the road to meet
some
of the UK’s top entrepreneurs. Peter meets John
Timpson
and his son James, who oversee the high street shops
best
known for shoe repairs and key cutting, and Judy Naake,
who
turned the tanning lotion St Tropez into a multi-million
pound franchise. Judy sold the rights for that franchise for
a
reported £70 million and is now topping up her own tan at
her
villa in Tuscany, while helping her son launch a new
make-up business. Judy had to battle through cancer and now
admits ’I never valued my own time or my health.’ At
Timpson, which owns around 950 shops and turned over £160
million in 2012, chairman John had a different battle - in
the
boardroom - to win back ownership of the company. ’I
learnt the value of control. Fifty per cent is fine; a
hundred per cent, a lot better.’

Title: The
Apprentice
Episode:
Stall to Shop
Description:
Business competition. The candidates receive an early
morning call, telling them to gather in the sitting room of
their London townhouse. Still in their
pyjamas, the teams
are
briefed on this week’s task: to grow a business from
scratch in 48 hours. Starting with 150 pounds, they must
source
stock for a market stall, then buy more of their best
sellers, before opening shops the next day. Before sending
them
off, Lord Sugar mixes the teams up and decides that,
for
this task, the boys should compete against the girls.
After deciding what to sell, they head straight out to
source stock. One team settles on fashion, while the rest
plump for homeware - but while some get off to a flying
start, others lag behind. In the boardroom
there is joy for
some
and heartbreak for others, and under questioning from
Lord
Sugar one candidate has a revelation in store. Who will
miss
out on becoming one of the Final Five and be the next
to
hear the words ’You’re Fired!’?
