'I can't believe we just said no'
The brains behind Blackpool's wizardry mini golf have left the Dragon's Den with nothing, despite leaving dragon Peter Jones "spellbound". Hole In Wand's founders Phil Pinder and Ben Fry appeared on the hit BBC show hoping to secure a £200k investment, in return for a 5% share of their parent business, The Potions Cauldron.
However, despite an impressive pitch, which saw them show-off train track-themed 'hole four' from the seaside resort's course, serving the Dragons flavoured potions and detailing their profits, four of the five Dragons rejected their deal.View gallery The first to say "I'm out" was entrepreneur and public speaker Steven Bartlett because he "couldn't get excited" enough about the business to invest £200k.
