1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,080
I'm back on the hunt for
2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,080
the UK's next top food and drink
entrepreneur.
3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:06,800
Woo!
4
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,640
Eight weeks ago, I sent
12 food and drink entrepreneurs
5
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,680
on an assault course of
challenges.
6
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,040
It's on fire!
7
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:16,120
Pushing them hard so I could see
what they're made of.
8
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,280
You've had enough explaining.
You're wasting time.
9
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:19,440
Can we move on?
10
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,280
I'm now down to
my final three contenders.
11
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,080
Sam... I own Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
12
00:00:25,080 --> 00:00:29,400
We make amazing seafood boils,
mouthwatering, full of flavour.
13
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:30,520
..Amy...
14
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,160
I am the owner and founder
of Blondie Bakery.
15
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:36,280
They're genuinely the best thing
I've ever tasted.
16
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,560
I've never met anybody that says
that they don't like them.
17
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:41,760
..and Andy.
18
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,040
I'm the founder of a CBD olive oil.
19
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,720
In five years, you'll see
Drops of Heal in the major retailers
20
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,160
alongside working with the biggest
restaurants in the UK.
21
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:52,480
This programme contains some strong
language.
22
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:55,320
This week I decide which one
I'm going to invest £150,000
23
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,360
of my own cash into.
24
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,200
I'm about to invest in one of you.
25
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,280
You're not being BLEEP honest
with me.
26
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,280
No other business in the UK
does what we do.
27
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,160
It's not supposed to be healthy.
28
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,480
I'm not trying to fool you.
That's not my intention.
29
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,240
Who will be my future food star?
30
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,400
I've invited my three finalists
to meet me here in Glasgow.
31
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,240
It holds a very special
place in my heart.
32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,720
It's where I was born and where
I started my career,
33
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,880
but not as a chef,
but as a footballer.
34
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,040
This place really changed my life
and, for either Amy, Andy or Sam,
35
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,920
it'll do exactly the same.
36
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,360
So I've asked them to meet me here,
at the legendary Ibrox Stadium,
37
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,920
home to the club where I started
my football career, Rangers.
38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,240
Kind of like the beginning of his
journey. End of ours! End of ours!
39
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,280
THEY LAUGH
40
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,120
And the crowd went wild!
41
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,600
Yeah!
42
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,280
Something so beautiful
about a football stadium.
43
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,080
Oh, look, look, look, look, look.
See that? Blondie Bakery.
44
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,840
No! Oh, wow!
45
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,120
Shut up!
46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,600
To give these three hopefuls
a taste of what's at stake...
47
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,760
Andy, there's yours! That's crazy.
48
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,160
..I've arranged for their products
to be screened
49
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,000
on the stadium's billboards.
50
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,720
That's so mad to see it
on a big screen.
51
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,320
Big and bold.
52
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,800
Oh, God.
53
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,000
This is everything.
54
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,800
I haven't seen my son for eight
weeks,
55
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,480
the business is shut, and I'm stood
here as one of three people
56
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,880
that are going to win his investment
after beating off
57
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,320
nine other competitors,
so...bring it on.
58
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,240
I'm pumped. I'm there.
59
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,960
I'm ready to go but I'm feeling
the pressure at the same time.
60
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,200
People that come from where I come
from don't really get
61
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,200
this opportunity, so I can't go
home saying that
62
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,280
I haven't won this thing.
63
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,800
I'm just going to bite down
and go for it.
64
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,880
I've worked really bloody hard
over the past seven weeks.
65
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,360
I've given it my everything.
66
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,040
I've even, like, surpassed
my expectations of myself.
67
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,920
So, I've got serious fight in me.
68
00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:02,560
So, yeah, let's go!
69
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,480
Here we go.
70
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,640
Good morning. Morning. Morning.
How are we? Good, thank you.
71
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:13,160
Good to see you guys.
72
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:14,760
We good? Yes. Yes?
73
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,360
Well, first of all, congratulations.
74
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,160
All three of you should be extremely
proud.
75
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,240
I am.
76
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,600
Well, it is the final week.
77
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,000
Listen carefully.
78
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,040
In a couple of days from now,
one of you will be receiving
79
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,240
£150,000 investment from me.
80
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,840
The start of a brand-new chapter
in your lives.
81
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,640
This is big.
82
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:36,360
Understood? Yes. Understood.
Absolutely.
83
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,960
Now, eight weeks ago,
I met you for the first time.
84
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,640
I've since then
put you through hell,
85
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,480
tested your character,
pushed you to the extreme.
86
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,800
Because I wanted to discover
what you're made of.
87
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,200
But now I want to delve
into your businesses.
88
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,800
I want to know if you can go global.
89
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,200
And your final challenge
is going to test this,
90
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,800
because I want all three of you
to create a limited edition
91
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,520
of your amazing products,
92
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,960
celebrating the place we're standing
in right now - Scotland.
93
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,400
So, today, I want you to devise
a new product, with branding.
94
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,320
And tomorrow, you'll create
a stunning social media promo,
95
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:19,320
and then you'll present them
at a launch event here in Glasgow.
96
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,840
Understood? Yeah.
97
00:04:20,840 --> 00:04:22,520
Good. Very good luck.
98
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:23,720
Off you go.
99
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,440
Oh, my God.
100
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,520
This needs to be...
101
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:31,720
SHE WHISTLES
102
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,080
..like, up there.
103
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,160
But my head's just, like...
104
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,200
Gordon's stress-testing us now.
105
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,560
Am I nervous? Absolutely.
106
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,720
I'm, you know, it's the biggest
moment of my life.
107
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,240
So, I'm just going to tackle it
as best I can.
108
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,720
I'm going to brainstorm the hell
out of this to produce something
109
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,200
crazy, creative, outside the box,
just to show Gordon
110
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,160
that my brand is versatile.
111
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,120
I'm sending my finalists
out across the city
112
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,040
to research their new products.
113
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,240
But with such a mammoth task ahead,
they'll need help.
114
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,200
SCREAMS
115
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,960
Oh, my God. Good to see you!
116
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,160
I'm teaming them up
with their former rivals.
117
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,760
I'm so glad you're here.
118
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,520
I'm so glad to be here.
119
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:25,120
I'm looking to invest my £150,000
in someone I can collaborate with.
120
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,360
Hello.
121
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,400
What are you doing here?!
122
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,160
So, I'll be paying close attention
123
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,840
to how the finalists work
with their team-mates.
124
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:35,240
THEY BOTH LAUGH
125
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,840
Oh, my God!
126
00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:40,400
Oh, my God. Hebe!
127
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,880
Sam with Hebe.
128
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,920
Oh, my God, I'm so excited.
129
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,520
I'm making a blend with my olive
oil - it's going to be the natural
130
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,360
and then we'll put something
Scottish in it.
131
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,480
Andy with Rachel.
132
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,480
And you know my products.
You know CBD as well.
133
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,600
So, I was literally just thinking,
what would Kier say
134
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:56,920
about this challenge?
135
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,600
And Amy with Kier.
136
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,080
So, what I've got to do is
create a limited edition
137
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,600
Scottish blondie. OK.
138
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,120
Easy, easy. Yeah.
139
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,320
So, a blondie is very similar
to a brownie.
140
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,440
However, I don't use cocoa powder
and I use a lot of white chocolate
141
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,640
in the bases.
142
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,840
I do them in various different
shapes, different concepts -
143
00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:21,880
cakes, stacks, pies.
144
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,040
Looks amazing. Fantastic...
145
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,000
It sort of came round
by an accident.
146
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,960
I was on maternity leave
and I started making them and
147
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,840
people started inviting me places
so that I would bring them.
148
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:36,120
So...I started charging.
149
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,720
And then it just went...
150
00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:44,480
Every event that I go to,
I make 500, 600 blondies
151
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,560
and I'm selling out in 45 minutes.
152
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,360
And then I'm stood there for another
five hours trying to explain
153
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,160
why I didn't bake more.
154
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:53,560
Amy works very hard.
155
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,600
She will be on the go from eight
on the morning and it could be ten,
156
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:58,840
11, 12 at night.
157
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:03,640
I've known times when she's been up
decorating blondies at 5:00
158
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,160
in the morning. Yeah.
159
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,480
So, at the moment,
the business is ran from home.
160
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,640
Every order goes out that front
door.
161
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,080
Every bit of stock comes
in the front door.
162
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,280
I need to get out the house.
I canna make any more!
163
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,720
I need bigger mixers.
I need bigger ovens.
164
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,800
I need staff.
165
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,920
I need racking, I need storage.
166
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,440
And I'm going postal.
167
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,560
As soon as I get all this space,
I'm going postal.
168
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,240
This business is bigger
than this house,
169
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,200
and this business is bigger
than Teesside.
170
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,240
So, what sort of sweet treats
are we going for in Scotland?
171
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,840
Essential to any new product
relaunch is market research.
172
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,680
Yeah, the caramel cake and custard.
That was old-school cake.
173
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,640
So, you know how, like, the caramel
slice?
174
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,760
What was the best? The shortbread,
or...?
175
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,640
Yeah, like shortbread.
176
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,320
That was shortbread.
177
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,120
Amy has a huge amount of work to do!
178
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,240
I was thinking, "Oh, you know, maybe
we'll just set up some things,
179
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,720
"like, introduce the brand,"
but, no, not completely reinvent
180
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,520
a new product in one day.
181
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,600
Hello, ladies. Do you mind if we ask
you a few questions?
182
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,320
Hello. How are you?
We're fine, thank you. Hello.
183
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,120
Across the city,
in Glasgow Botanic Gardens,
184
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,840
Andy and Rachel are putting in
the legwork.
185
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,160
I have a CBD olive oil company.
186
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,480
Are you familiar with CBD?
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah?
187
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,040
I've seen it in Holland & Barrett.
188
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,840
We're actually big fans of CBD.
189
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,880
Yeah? Yeah, CBD, I love it, yeah.
190
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,040
I'm loving this. I'm loving this.
191
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,760
I have a CBD-infused olive oil.
192
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,800
We have four different flavours
and our whole mission
193
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,560
is to really change
the way people see CBD.
194
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:41,600
My original dream was to be a rugby
player, but I had a bad knee injury,
195
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,560
so, I suffered a lot of pain, sleep
issues, anxiety and depression.
196
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:52,080
So, was looking for a natural remedy
which kind of helped me find CBD.
197
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,200
My girlfriend is my business
partner.
198
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,720
You want me to change it?
199
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,160
No-one has tapped into CBD food
the way we're tapping into it.
200
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,760
And Andy is incredibly hardworking.
201
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,360
You know, I think a lot
of what motivates him
202
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,600
is what he wants to do for his mum
and his sister.
203
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,400
And I think that really pushes him
forward and drives him.
204
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:10,560
How's that?
205
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:12,200
Andy isn't a second place
kind of guy.
206
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,680
He wants to go all the way.
207
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:15,720
The ultimate aim is to be the leader
in the market
208
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,280
when it comes to CBD food.
209
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,640
So, the connections that Gordon has,
you know, the platform that Gordon
210
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,440
has, by having someone like him
married with our brand
211
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,160
and our sort of innovative style
and our youth,
212
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,760
I feel like we can just take on
the world.
213
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,880
What's the typical thing you think
of in Scottish taste?
214
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,600
There's a lot of wild garlic
growing around this area, locally.
215
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,480
Heather would be one. Heather?
216
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,040
Also sea kelp. Sea kelp.
217
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,520
Well, it's not fried,
deep-fried Mars bars!
218
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,240
Can I get a lobster, please?
219
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,600
Across town, Sam and Hebe
are checking out the local seafood.
220
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,160
And then I need the langoustines.
221
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,640
Of course, the razor clams
and the triple XL badboy prawns.
222
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,160
I want to keep this sauce
223
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,320
as southern America meets Scottish
as possible.
224
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,760
So, like, imported stuff is
a no-no. Yeah, yeah.
225
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,440
My business is
Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
226
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,760
We are the leading seafood boil
takeaway in the UK
227
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,880
and we're about to take the world
by storm.
228
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,240
During lockdown, people really
wanted to recreate
229
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,760
our seafood boils from home.
230
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,000
So, we came up with the idea
to package our sauce.
231
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,360
And now every time we put a release
on the site, it sells out.
232
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,200
We have a cult following.
233
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,480
There's no surprise to me that Sam
has gotten this far,
234
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,760
because that's just,
that's just who she is.
235
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,560
You know, she's someone who's
tenacious, a non-quitter.
236
00:10:41,560 --> 00:10:43,080
World domination!
237
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,120
THEY CHEER
238
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,520
This is actually a gap in the market
that Gordon should take.
239
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,520
We've done the groundwork,
we've done the pop-ups,
240
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,760
and now we're ready to just
shoot to the stars.
241
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,240
What is a traditional Scottish
flavour?
242
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,960
Whisky is actually...a really big
flavour for us.
243
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,400
So then, maybe whisky and haggis.
244
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,320
Yeah, actually, yeah.
Infused into that.
245
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,720
That could actually work.
246
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,080
That just screams Scotland to me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
247
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,800
I can't lie, I miss touching
shellfish and they have
248
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,440
so much fresh seafood here.
249
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,040
I just cannot wait to put
all these flavours into a pot
250
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,160
and just make some amazing
Cajun-Scottish goodness.
251
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,200
Bye. Thank you.
252
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,880
Armed with the findings from their
market research, the finalists
253
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,560
now need to create their
Scottish-inspired limited editions.
254
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:34,160
With very little time to achieve
this, and with my investment
255
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,000
at stake, I provided some support
for them all.
256
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,960
Hi. Hello.
257
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,600
Helping Amy is executive recipe
developer Rich Harris.
258
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,240
What I suggest you do is
write your recipe down,
259
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,520
think of it as a base and
then inclusions.
260
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,680
This looks amazing.
261
00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:50,720
Assisting Andy...
262
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,680
So, this is where we're going to win
this challenge. Absolutely.
263
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:57,440
..flavour innovator Craig Porter
of Start-Up Drinks Lab.
264
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,040
The best thing to do to start
265
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,120
is identifying a few key flavours
that you like. Yeah.
266
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,240
So, basically, I want to make
a Scottish seafood sauce.
267
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,760
Have you got a product
at the minute?
268
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,160
And working with Sam,
269
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,120
product development guru
David Neville of Taste Creators.
270
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,920
You've got quite, quite a bit of
sort of fat and salt in this.
271
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,440
It's packed, because it's packed
full of, like, flavours.
272
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,000
You don't think maybe
that could be a problem?
273
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,240
Erm...
274
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,000
The first thing the food expert
said was the fat content
275
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,040
for the current sauce she has,
276
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,480
and when I saw that,
I was a little bit surprised.
277
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:30,640
It just seems quite high.
278
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,560
This is like an addition to a meal,
so it's not a whole meal.
279
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:35,960
OK. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah?
280
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,160
When we spoke to the market research
people, they were talking about
281
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,360
nostalgic type of feelings
and things like that.
282
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,720
And I thought, well, cranachan.
What's cranachan?
283
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,080
So, cranachan is like
a Scottish dessert.
284
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,320
Raspberry, cream... Yeah.
285
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,960
..oats and whisky. Whisky, yeah.
Is that what it is? Yeah.
286
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,800
But instead of the cream,
can we make, like, a marshmallow?
287
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,160
Yeah, you could do marshmallow.
288
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,760
I mean, you can have a play
with it.
289
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,080
Amy's idea is really cool.
290
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:04,880
I hadn't even heard of her cran...
291
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,920
Cr... Cr...
292
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,560
Cranachan! Until today.
293
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:12,200
So, I normally do 125.
294
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,760
That could be delicious,
if we get the recipe right.
295
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,600
Just as a tip with the freeze-dried
raspberries - you want to make sure
296
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,200
that batter coats them quite well
because they...
297
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,480
Will they burn? Yeah.
298
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,400
Sugar-wise, what's your kind
of approach to sugar?
299
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,880
They're obviously quite sweet,
so it's making sure you get
300
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,080
that balance as well.
301
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,160
So... Yeah. ..a bit of acidity
coming through.
302
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,120
I think he's saying
less sugar, maybe.
303
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,720
This is everyone's problem with me!
304
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,400
At the end of the day,
it's a sweet treat.
305
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,680
It's not a health challenge.
306
00:13:38,680 --> 00:13:41,640
It's just about making something
delicious that's Scottish
307
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,920
and there's a boatload of sugar
in it.
308
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,600
If you're confident with it, mate,
don't listen to the noise.
309
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,840
Just...Just go with it. Yeah.
310
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,800
Gorse is a very interesting one
if you've not came across it before.
311
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,160
Ooh. It's different.
312
00:13:57,560 --> 00:14:00,560
Andy and Rachel are looking for
the perfect Scottish spin
313
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:01,960
on his CBD olive oil.
314
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,240
Sugar kelp.
315
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,280
Ooh. I love, I love that.
316
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:07,880
We heard about thistle.
317
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,320
It's our national flower.
318
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,440
There's a lot of folklore about
how the thistle is important to us.
319
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,840
So, the three that I'm set on
and what I want to play with,
320
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,640
flavour profile-wise, is the sugar
kelp, the heather flower
321
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,160
and, of course,
the great Scottish thistle.
322
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,120
Right. You'll be Scottish
by the end of this, for sure! Aye!
323
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,280
The key to a successful flavour
combination lies in the blend.
324
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,160
So, this one is 60% of the
sugar kelp, 20 of the heather,
325
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,680
20 of the thistle.
326
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,800
I need more of everything in that.
327
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,400
I've just got the oil. Yeah.
328
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,080
So, we've lowered the dosage
of the sugar kelp.
329
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:51,680
It's now to 40% and then the other
ingredients are in equal measures.
330
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,160
To me right now, they taste like
331
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:54,800
I'm trying different olive oils,
332
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,720
if you know what I mean.
It's tricky.
333
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,200
The flavours you've chosen aren't
big flavour punches, you know?
334
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,440
It's not like garlic or chilli
where there's a very strong...
335
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,760
Yeah, or whisky or something.
336
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,920
I don't want it to be,
337
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,160
the story does a good job,
the promo does a good job,
338
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,800
and then you taste it
and it's like olive oil.
339
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,640
I'd like there to be
a significant taste of something.
340
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,640
This smells amazing.
341
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,800
Working on her Cajun-Scottish
sauce blend...
342
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,400
I'm going to put some whisky in
as well.
343
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,640
She's going for it.
344
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,920
..is Sam.
345
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,720
50ml, Hebe. Are you pouring
all of that in? Yeah.
346
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,440
Whack the heat up a bit now.
347
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,760
So, if I wanted to incorporate
a haggis into the sauce,
348
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,440
what would be the best way?
349
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,080
Maybe crumble it in
towards the end of the cook.
350
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,040
I'm going to add garlic puree.
351
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,680
It's definitely a limited edition.
You can't play it safe.
352
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,240
OK, let's strain this off.
353
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,680
But one bad decision
or overlooking something
354
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,240
can really have a negative impact.
355
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,200
Let's taste it and get it
to your flavour that you want.
356
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,520
Tastes salty. Is it salty?
357
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,360
I don't know why it tastes salty.
358
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,400
I haven't put any salt in there.
359
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,240
Have you put stock cubes in?
Yeah. Yeah.
360
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,280
All right. But the stock doesn't
taste like that.
361
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,080
What about the butter?
Is it salted butter?
362
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,560
The butter, it's unsalted.
363
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,240
What else did you put in? I just put
the garlic and the butter.
364
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,840
Ooh, it is very salty.
365
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,960
With their limited edition products
still in development,
366
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,200
the finalists now need to focus
on their branding and packaging.
367
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,440
Hi, nice to meet you.
368
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,800
I've recruited some top designers
to help them...
369
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,120
First question I would ask you is,
how far away do you want to move
370
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,360
from your existing brand?
371
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,400
..from specialist agencies
Brand F...
372
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,080
I'm going with the same bottle.
373
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,320
Yeah. But then this is like
the Scottish version of it.
374
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,880
What's the brand all about?
375
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,160
..Made Brave...
376
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,520
Feeding people
is like a love language to me,
377
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,240
so I'd really like for that love
to come through. Yeah.
378
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,880
We need to think of a name.
379
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,360
..and Warriors Studio.
380
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,520
Cracking is like a word that we use
here and it's like,
381
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,160
"Oh, that's cracking."
382
00:16:58,160 --> 00:16:59,880
I like that. That sounds great.
383
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:01,720
Cracking Cranachan Blondie.
384
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,720
A wee Cracking Cranachan Blondie?
385
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,560
A wee Cracking Cranachan Blondie!
386
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,200
Let's talk about the packaging.
Yeah, I want to go postal.
387
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,760
If that came through your postbox,
388
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,480
you'd be like,
"What the hell's this?"
389
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,680
This feels like luxury, and there's
four, so there's enough to share,
390
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,560
it's not a single piece.
I like that, yeah.
391
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,000
Please, can I go for this one?
392
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,560
Typically, obviously, I have a lot
of negative space in there,
393
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,560
but I like the idea of like
one-line drawings.
394
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,280
Yeah, sea kelps... I love the
look of... ..can be quite nice.
395
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,120
..something like that. Just subtle
in the background... Mm-hm.
396
00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:34,240
Definitely. ..could be quite nice.
Serenity.
397
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,440
That's the word that I know we have
to use on there -
398
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,480
"serenity of Scotland". Even that
being
399
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,080
maybe just like a product name.
400
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,040
In Scotland, seafood is so
important to the culture.
401
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,240
It's similar, I suppose,
to southern America.
402
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,320
So it's kind of a mixture
of the two cultures.
403
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,000
I feel like there's a shore-to-shore
kind of storyline here.
404
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,320
I love that idea of shore-to-shore.
Makes it sound very fresh.
405
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,800
Yeah. OK. So, like, in terms of
your packaging... I do like this
406
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,600
because it's a bit different.
Yeah. Happy? I like that.
407
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,720
Fully briefed, the designers were
working overnight
408
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,160
to make the packaging...
409
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,480
..that the finalists must fill with
their still-unfinished products.
410
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:15,400
Oh, it's not really
drizzling, like.
411
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,720
You've got these gaps -
it's just not fucking right.
412
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,480
So I definitely want
more sugar kelp...
413
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,920
Still to decide on a unique Scottish
flavour blend
414
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,440
for his CBD olive oil - Andy.
415
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,960
I think we need to think about the
ones that are actually
416
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,440
going to work with
a multitude of food. Mm.
417
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,240
What about the wild garlic?
418
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,160
Yeah, I'm conscious that I have got
a garlic and I'm just wondering,
419
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,320
is that going to be considered
too close to something I already do?
420
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,040
If you want, I can let you sniff
some of it.
421
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,680
Yeah, I'd love to try it.
Definitely.
422
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,920
I can already smell it as soon
as you opened it, yeah.
423
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,760
You want to give it a sniff as well?
Yeah, it's slightly different to
424
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,320
what I have, because that's
kind of got something behind it.
425
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,160
It smells fruitier. There's like a
fruit... Yeah, it's a little bit
426
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,840
more...onion-y. I think that,
combined with the sea kelp...
427
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,040
To kind of round it off?
..might balance it right out.
428
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,120
Yeah, let's try it.
Yeah, sure. Let's do it.
429
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:03,480
Yeah, it's hard, you know,
because I have a garlic olive oil,
430
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,440
so I'm really worried that I would
get judged on it
431
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,160
and then the idea was,
432
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,720
"Oh, well, you've just gone to
something you already do."
433
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,800
That's coming through now, more.
Yeah? I definitely can taste it now.
434
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,320
OK. You're happy with this?
Yeah. That's the formulation now.
435
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,400
In my mind, I think it's good,
you know? I'm sure it's good,
436
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,440
but it might not be.
437
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,680
Mate, my mind is fucking racing,
you know what I mean?
438
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,560
So that's just... It's got garlic in
there?
439
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,480
..stock and butter and
garlic. Let me taste it.
440
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,960
It's the garlic. Maybe that...
Is that garlic puree with salt?
441
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,680
Let's blend fresh garlic.
442
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,880
With day one coming to an end...
Let's use 100ml of this.
443
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,480
We're going to run out of time.
444
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,480
..it's a race for Sam to get her
Scottish-Cajun sauce finished.
445
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,480
I think I might put a little bit
more haggis in this.
446
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,680
I don't get much whisky, no.
So I'll do 5g of whisky here.
447
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,240
Sam, we need to get this recipe
across for upscaling!
448
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,400
I'll have it ready in two seconds.
Four more grams of haggis...
449
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,480
Don't go mad, yeah. Yeah, there's a
couple more prawns here.
450
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:08,720
I want to try this.
451
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,400
Mmm. Mm-hm?
452
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,480
Mm-mm! Good? Yeah? Yeah. That's it.
453
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,520
Really hope Gordon likes it.
I really hope he likes it.
454
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,200
There's so much riding on this.
455
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,040
Tomorrow is my last day and I just
really want it to just go
456
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,200
perfect and right.
457
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,600
Oh, they look wonderful.
458
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,480
It's time for Amy to taste
a Cranachan blondie.
459
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,520
It's not right...
460
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,400
It's not right.
But, I mean, it tastes good.
461
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,560
The blondie's good. Yeah, I know,
but it's the topping.
462
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,960
The oats needed to go on
ten minutes into the baking.
463
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,840
It's like...the truth's in the bite,
464
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,920
and it just didn't bite well.
465
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,880
The oats are too crumbly, and I
think it possibly needs a bit
466
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,880
more honey in to bind it.
467
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,920
With the recipe still unfinished,
Amy must give the instructions
468
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,280
for it to be tweaked overnight.
469
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,200
Double the quantity of whisky.
470
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,480
I'm just feeling feel a bit anxious
about the fact that
471
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,920
I now have no control, and seeing
it for the first time tomorrow.
472
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,920
Two raspberries per square...
473
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,080
Could there be three?
Could be three.
474
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,160
Up the freeze-dried to ten.
Yeah.
475
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,160
It's a gamble, but I can win.
476
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,040
I can win.
477
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,840
If I keep saying it,
I might fucking believe it.
478
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,480
When I saw the finalists yesterday,
I asked them to create a
479
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,880
Scottish limited edition of their
products
480
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,520
ahead of their big launch
at today's event.
481
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,480
But first, they need to create a
stunning promo, because in business,
482
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,080
you'll never take off unless
you know how to promote yourself,
483
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,120
your product or your brand.
484
00:21:59,120 --> 00:22:00,600
So, this is our space.
485
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,880
# Dun-dun-du-u-u-un! #
486
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,760
Overnight, their limited edition
products have been mass produced.
487
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,720
Oh! That looks really cool.
It does.
488
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:15,280
Oh, no, see - that looks
so much better.
489
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:16,880
Mmm...
490
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,680
That is lovely. Yeah. I am
absolutely over the moon with that.
491
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,920
You should be.
It's significantly better.
492
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,800
Last night, I left
and I was thinking,
493
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,840
this is just so...different.
494
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:33,120
But it tastes good, it looks good.
That box is perfect for postals
495
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:35,400
so you can send a wee bit
of Scotland anywhere.
496
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,960
Open it!
497
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,120
Oh, wow...
498
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,120
GASPS
499
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:44,440
Oh, my God! That looks lovely.
They did a very good job.
500
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,000
I really like it.
It's definitely looks premium to me.
501
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,360
And me. And limited edition.
I'm so happy with how it looks.
502
00:22:50,360 --> 00:22:53,440
Now you've got make a video.
I know.
503
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,640
Mm... Oh, it's faint.
It's really faint.
504
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,400
Cos on the screen, it was,
like... It popped a lot. Yeah...
505
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,480
Hm... You're disappointed? A bit.
506
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,240
First seeing the bottle,
it was slightly underwhelming.
507
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,440
I'd have liked the flavouring type
to be a bit clearer, bolder.
508
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,240
You know, I'm stressed about it,
I am.
509
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,840
It's green. I didn't want it green.
I wanted it grey.
510
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,040
We'll make it work with the video.
Yeah. Don't worry too much about it.
511
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,440
HE SIGHS
512
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,440
What can you do?
513
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,760
AMY: I want to start with
the hero shot, and then,
514
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,520
"Wee Cracking Cranachan Blondies"
in a Scottish accent.
515
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,840
The finalists have just 90 minutes
to make their social media promos.
516
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,040
Three, two, one...
517
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,840
To help, I've given them
some extras to work with.
518
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,960
So your whole job is basically to be
struggling doing yoga.
519
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:45,760
THEY LAUGH
520
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,120
Hi, guys. We've got this limited
edition Scot Seafood Sauce
521
00:23:50,120 --> 00:23:52,520
from Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
OK, stop...
522
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:53,920
Just try and do it a bit faster.
523
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,760
When you say
"limited edition sauce",
524
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,920
that's when you put it
in the camera, yeah? OK.
525
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,640
And really, like, exaggerate it.
526
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,840
OK. Yeah.
527
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,960
With 50,000 followers, Sam is
no stranger to social media.
528
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,480
So bring it more...
529
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,280
Like, there.
530
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,080
I take social media marketing
very seriously.
531
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,040
OK, I see that.
532
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,440
So it does give me the edge
on the other two.
533
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,680
Let's try it with someone else.
You've got dirt in your fingers!
534
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,720
I'm taking on every role -
director to video camerawoman,
535
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,920
to editor, so it is
a little bit of pressure.
536
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,400
It's really, really good.
Are you sure it's good?
537
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,560
Because you don't look
like you're enjoying it.
538
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,240
Dip that sauce... OK, right.
..and love it.
539
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,720
My extras need to understand
there's a lot riding on this.
540
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,280
Act like you've won the lottery -
just for two seconds!
541
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,800
This is going to change my life,
so we need to work accordingly.
542
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,720
It's a really, really good sauce,
543
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,320
so thank you very much,
Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN,
544
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,720
for the sauce!
OK, let's try again.
545
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,000
Wee Cracking Cranachan Blondies.
546
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,040
Oh, that was good!
547
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,720
What I'm thinking is, I want,
like, a bit of movement,
548
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,920
so I might go from blondie to mouth.
549
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,240
LAUGHTER
550
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,400
OVERLAPPING SPEECH
551
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,640
One, two, three.
552
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,000
The video is about getting the
message across
553
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,760
that it's to enjoy with friends,
nice product photos.
554
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,720
I would stop scrolling
and look at that.
555
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,880
Don't worry about being dainty -
smash it in your gob. Right...
556
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,600
While Amy and Kier crack on...
557
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,120
Hold it up a bit more, closer to me.
558
00:25:27,120 --> 00:25:29,800
..Andy and Rachel
are falling behind.
559
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,600
I just don't think we're getting,
like, enough snappy shots.
560
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,480
I think that should be, like, one
of the end shots, and there needs
561
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,040
to be, like, something in the
middle.
562
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,880
All of you get up into this
position. Yeah?
563
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,600
I knew this was going to be the
tough part of the segment for me.
564
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,320
With social media, you know,
I have a team,
565
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,120
we have a marketing strategy.
We have someone who is far more
566
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:49,720
creative and proficient
on social media than I am.
567
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,000
Left, fall down...
568
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,400
I know that's not where I excel.
569
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,760
You can speed that right up.
Like, it doesn't...
570
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,240
All of these shots don't need
to be as slow as you think.
571
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,200
Gordon always says you need to
cut and edit where appropriate,
572
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,680
and I just want the best video
possible for Andy,
573
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,320
so I'm happy to vocalise
along the way, if need be.
574
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,200
That's it. We've committed,
we've got to do it now. Edit it.
575
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,040
It usually takes me a couple of
hours to do something like this.
576
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,360
Well, we've got less than that,
Kier! Pull that to the fore...
577
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:20,800
Pull that to the front.
I'm really proud of Amy.
578
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,280
Yesterday was really tough, but
she's come back fighting today.
579
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:25,960
Just speed it up. Yeah.
580
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,000
To actually shoot, direct and
edit a little promo like that,
581
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000
it was a big task and I
think she needs that confidence
582
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,080
going into this afternoon.
583
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,760
Can we just delete a lot of this
shit? It's making me anxious. Yeah.
584
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,920
Hi, guys. We've got this
limited edition Scot Seafood Sauce
585
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:42,600
from Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
586
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,800
Sam knows what she wants,
587
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,600
so she really made sure she got
exactly what she needed.
588
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,040
Argh! That needs to go.
His hands are filthy.
589
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,320
It's really hard for me to imagine
how Sam must be feeling.
590
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,840
There's so much pressure
on this one challenge now.
591
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,520
Oh, mate, I'm not feeling confident
about this, rewatching these shots.
592
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,680
The impostor syndrome is so real
right now.
593
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,040
I'm feeling the pressure. Don't get
me wrong, I felt it every week
594
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,320
and I just dealt with it.
But, like, now it's different.
595
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,480
More of it needs to be speedy,
like, speedy-stoppy, speedy-stoppy.
596
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,760
I'm going to stand up and be judged
on the video that I made.
597
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,920
It's so bad, though. It's so bad.
598
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,440
HE SIGHS
599
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,920
That was stressful.
Oh, yeah, give me THAT.
600
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,600
I just need to get the presentation
ready now. Yeah, let's go.
601
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,320
It's not bad for an hour's work,
is it? It's not. But do you know
602
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,360
what I forgot? What? I've got to
fucking present it today.
603
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:34,120
Oh, yeah, there's always that!
604
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,960
I've chosen somewhere very close to
my heart for the three finalists
605
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,160
to launch their brand.
It's The Barras Market
606
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,160
in the East End of Glasgow,
and I used to come here
607
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,480
as a kid with my family to share one
portion of fish and chips.
608
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,040
Today, it's the arena in which my
finalists will pitch
609
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,200
to win my £150,000 investment.
610
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,600
Oh, my, where is it?
611
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,880
Oh, my God. Look, it's over there.
Sam, it looks amazing.
612
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,320
This is so cool. Here we go.
Oh, wow. That looks so classy.
613
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,480
That is so beautiful.
614
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,640
Very soon, the space will
be filled with invited guests...
615
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,200
Oh! My front door.
616
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,160
..who the finalists will get up
close and personal with,
617
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,960
before getting onstage to officially
launch their products.
618
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,080
A little bit of home.
619
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,560
That's the thing, it's...
You're going to make ME cry. Jesus!
620
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,120
..where it started.
Now you're here.
621
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:33,000
WHISPERED: You should be so proud.
No, I am. Yeah.
622
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,400
What's that look like so far?
Bit disjointed?
623
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,040
Just strap this... I don't even
know how...it goes on.
624
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,920
Ooh! Oh, that can't be right.
625
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,600
Can you slip your arms
through the front?
626
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,360
And then one goes like that?
627
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,160
That's better.
628
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,160
SHE LAUGHS
629
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,200
There we go.
630
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,880
Amy. Hi. How are you? How are you?
Good morning, are you good? I am.
631
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,480
Packaging looks great. Thank you.
632
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,120
Take me through yesterday -
how was it?
633
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,920
So what we did was incorporate
a cranachan into the blondie,
634
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,040
so we packed it full of
ruby chocolate, whisky,
635
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,560
Scottish honey. I've done a
little marshmallow drizzle
636
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,320
and fresh raspberries. Right.
The whole Amy going on there. Yeah.
637
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,840
Does it need the marshmallow?
Yeah. It does? It does. OK.
638
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,040
Big presentation. Yes.
Room's going to be packed.
639
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,800
Imagine you're having a chat,
but project it and don't rush it.
640
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,320
Absolutely. Yeah? Don't waffle.
641
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,040
I'll try not to. And answer it.
Good luck. Thank you.
642
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,640
Right. I mean, what can go wrong?
643
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,680
Pep talk from Gordon.
Glamorous shop person...
644
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,960
Argh! Yeah. This is it.
645
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,600
This is it.
646
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,880
What's nice is, I get
to practise with people first.
647
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,560
I think the only thing that
might let us down is that video,
648
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,360
but it is what it is.
649
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,200
Andy. Gordon. Rachel, good
morning. Hello! Welcome back.
650
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,280
Good to see you. You too.
How are you feeling?
651
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,280
I want to get what you think first.
Yeah.
652
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,760
Yeah, that's spicy, that garlic.
It's lovely.
653
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,600
It's a unique product, so you have
to educate at the beginning. Yeah.
654
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,240
Not everyone's heard of
a CBD olive oil. Yeah. OK?
655
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,960
So just be very careful there,
but sell it in an uncomplicated way.
656
00:29:59,960 --> 00:30:02,600
Yeah, that's key. Yeah. Good luck.
Thank you. Thank you, Gordon.
657
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,840
Nice to see you.
658
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,240
We might get a question of,
what does CBD do?
659
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,480
So I can give my
personal experience.
660
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,440
You can... Say what it does
exactly. Yeah, yeah, I get that.
661
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,440
Sam. How are you? Yes! Yeah, good.
How are you feeling? Great.
662
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,520
I know you always get a little bit
sort of nervous about this.
663
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,200
Honestly, this is a confirmation
of how well you've done,
664
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,040
so let it go and just project
that voice.
665
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,400
Look at one individual,
focus on him or her...
666
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,960
I'm going to look at you the whole
time! No, you won't see me.
667
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,880
I'll be hiding. Don't forget the
DNA - the foundation of this brand.
668
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,600
It's a lovely story, and I know
how much it means to you.
669
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,600
Shoulders back, and own that room.
I will. OK? Yeah.
670
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,480
Good luck. Thank you. Looks
beautiful. Well done. Thank you.
671
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,400
I think you're ready.
And I think that...
672
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,000
Sam, when you go on that stage, do
not cry! But that's not a bad thing!
673
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,240
We're ready. We're ready to go.
674
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,920
Stand here, so when they walk in,
they see you first. All right.
675
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,560
There you go!
676
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,560
HEBE CHUCKLES
677
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,080
SINGSONG: Here they come!
678
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,440
Doors open...
679
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,920
SINGSONG: Let's do it!
Hello, everyone. Hi.
680
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,360
..local residents and business
owners arrive
681
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,080
to sample the new products...
Would you like to try some CBD?
682
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,320
I thought you'd never ask!
That's what we like to hear.
683
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,120
..to see if the contenders
have cracked the Scottish market.
684
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,720
Also we've got haggis in there.
There's whisky,
685
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,680
so it adds some depth to the
flavour.
686
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,800
I'd like to taste a Wee Cracking
Cranachan Blondie. All in one.
687
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,080
Yeah?
688
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,640
I wanted to make it so that
689
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,920
it's something that you could have
every day.
690
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,520
From shore to shore,
to Scotland, with love. Lovely.
691
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,000
Well, yesterday, created this.
692
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,760
So what makes it Scottish? I've put
haggis in there, and whisky. OK.
693
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,640
And what fish should this go on?
694
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,400
Any fish. Any fish? ANY fish.
695
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,400
Have you ever tried CBD oil before?
Do you know what it is?
696
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,760
It's cannabis oil or something...?
So, essentially,
697
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,720
it's derived from hemp.
It's completely non-psychoactive,
698
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,880
so there's going to be no
adverse effect.
699
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,760
I'd love to get you to try it,
if you'd like to. Yes, I will.
700
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,200
Yes?
701
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,920
Unbeknown to the finalists,
I've invited industry leaders
702
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,960
in each of the fields to go
undercover at the launch.
703
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,760
Then, give ME their honest opinions.
704
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,680
Would you like to try some olive oil
infused with CBD? Yeah. Yeah?
705
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,040
What do you think of the taste?
It's predominantly garlic. Yes.
706
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,360
I could get...garlic. Yeah.
It's pleasant. Nice for dipping.
707
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,520
So, for each millilitre of
olive oil, you get 2mg.
708
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,280
Would you cook with this
olive oil? Because, if it was CBD,
709
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:33,960
I'd probably use it for...like,
710
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,000
dipping in bread and things like
that.
711
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,600
Yeah, we try and encourage our
customers to...use it fresh,
712
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,800
and to drizzle, make marinades out
of it and so on.
713
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,480
How was that? That was good, yeah!
714
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,600
Did you want another one?
Yes, please. Go on, mate.
715
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,720
I'd recommend eating it, in one,
or with the raspberry as well,
716
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,120
because the raspberry really helps
temper the sweetness.
717
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,880
Very, very moreish. Right?
718
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,000
Is the plan to sell it to bakeries?
719
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,880
Is that how you would get it
out there into the market?
720
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,200
No. The plan is to go postal.
Oh, right, yeah...
721
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,440
You can send a wee bit
of Scotland anywhere.
722
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,840
Have you tried it in the post?
Does it stay in perfect condition?
723
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,400
It does. OK. So what we've got,
you can get, like, a cellophane bag
724
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:11,720
and you can heat-seal it.
725
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,640
How do you use the sauce?
726
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,800
Put it in a microwave
for two minutes
727
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,400
and pour it over your seafood.
728
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,280
Well, I was looking in the back of
the pack -
729
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,600
doesn't mention that at all.
730
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,760
On the back, it says, "For
inspiration, visit our website." OK.
731
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,400
Tell me, how are you? Yeah,
I'm really enjoying this! Busy.
732
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:29,920
I'm loving it! Busy, busy.
733
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,000
How much butter is in there?
So there's 100g in a big pot.
734
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,400
So it's a garlic butter base.
Right. Gotcha.
735
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,040
It's super rich. Does it taste
Scottish?
736
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,280
It tastes delicious
737
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,600
and I can definitely taste
the seafood coming through.
738
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,080
All three finalists seem to be
handling the pressure,
739
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,000
but will they hold their nerve
740
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,640
as they showcase their businesses
to the room?
741
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,320
Ladies and gentlemen,
742
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,920
first of all, I'd like to say
a big welcome to The Barras.
743
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,080
Today is about three extraordinary
brands,
744
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:03,400
and fronting those brands
we have Amy, Andy and Sam.
745
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,400
Please, give a warm welcome.
Let's start off with Amy first.
746
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:08,600
Thank you.
747
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,000
APPLAUSE
748
00:34:11,240 --> 00:34:14,440
Ladies and gentlemen, honestly,
thank you so much for coming today.
749
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,600
My name is Amy and I am the owner
and founder of Blondie Bakery.
750
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,040
I started making blondies in 2018.
751
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,600
Initially, it was for friends
and family.
752
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,920
It was little birthdays,
social events.
753
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,280
And then, very quickly, I was
getting orders, I was getting
754
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:34,600
wholesale requests, and I've gone
from 20 boxes to 50 boxes a day.
755
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:39,000
So what I've developed for you
is my limited-edition
756
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,960
Wee Cracking Cranachan Blondie.
757
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,000
We've created packaging to go with
that also, so that you can send
758
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,680
a wee bit of Scotland anywhere.
759
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,280
I've created also a little
social media video for you all
760
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:53,760
to have a little look at.
761
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,000
Blondie Bakery presents
762
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,080
Wee Cracking Cranachan Blondies.
763
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,480
You've had cranachan before,
but not like this.
764
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,600
Too good not to share.
765
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,000
It's just a smashing good
blondie.
766
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,840
Sending a wee bit
of Scotland anywhere.
767
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,280
All the best. Love, Blondie Bakery.
768
00:35:13,240 --> 00:35:14,880
That's very good.
769
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,120
Basically, this investment would
absolutely change my life.
770
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,960
I've completely outgrown the kitchen
and need to level up.
771
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,480
I'm sure we got some
burning questions.
772
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,040
Yes. Amy, have you heard of HFSS?
773
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,720
I haven't. Should I have...?
It's legislation that's coming in.
774
00:35:37,720 --> 00:35:39,200
It stands for
775
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:40,840
high fat, salt and sugar. OK.
776
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,240
And it will limit what you can do
in terms of promoting
777
00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:47,160
and where you can place your
product. When that comes in,
778
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,960
I'll...adhere to
all of the regulations.
779
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,760
Madam, with the leather jacket.
Thank you.
780
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,160
Obviously, the brownie blondie
market, it's quite a busy market.
781
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,320
Yeah. How do you plan on making
your product stand out
782
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,680
in such a crowded space?
783
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:03,040
So, at the moment, I'm actually
the only...bakery within the UK
784
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,760
that only does blondies.
785
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,320
I think that the products speak
for themselves, in the taste
786
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,000
and the quality, and I want to use
that investment to really elevate
787
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,120
the boxing, the branding.
788
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,520
I honestly don't believe there's
any event that can't be enhanced
789
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,520
by a blondie. So that's almost why
there isn't a target market.
790
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,040
It's just people with mouths.
LAUGHTER
791
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,320
Please, give it up for Amy.
Thank you.
792
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,280
Really good job. Thank you.
Really good job. Thank you.
793
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,440
That was...! So proud of you!
794
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,360
Seriously, dude, like, honestly,
you nailed it. That's it.
795
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,160
There's nothing else you can do.
I literally can't do anything else.
796
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:41,760
How did you feel? Oh, God. Sick.
797
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,760
Next up, Andy.
798
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,040
Let me take you back five years ago.
I lost my career to a knee injury.
799
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,760
I used to play rugby. I was met with
a lot of chronic pain, anxiety,
800
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,160
sleep issues.
801
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,840
My main aim, after that, was to find
a natural remedy, and I found CBD.
802
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,320
It's a naturally occurring compound
found in hemp, and I ended up
803
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:07,640
coming up with a CBD olive oil,
and therefore you would have a dose
804
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,840
of CBD in your meal.
805
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,480
But why I'm here is I'm presenting
my Scottish signature line.
806
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,080
So we call that our
Serenity of Scotland.
807
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,600
I'm going to let you have
a look at our promo video.
808
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,560
Drops of Heal, a CBD-infused
olive oil...
809
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,800
..incorporating
local wild garlic, heather
810
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,040
and foraged sugar kelp
from the Isle of Skye.
811
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,160
A botanical blend of bliss,
infused, designed and bottled
812
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:43,480
in Scotland.
813
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,200
Ladies and gentlemen,
any questions for Andy?
814
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,680
How do you plan to inform
the public and basically demystify
815
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:55,800
all those myths of CBD?
816
00:37:55,800 --> 00:38:00,520
I am aware of how difficult it is
to market and promo CBD,
817
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,880
as you might have seen,
but I'm limited on what I can do.
818
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,480
By putting it into an olive oil,
819
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,120
we're kind of combating the taboo
of what people think CBD is.
820
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,840
We hear a lot of, "Oh,
it's cannabis, and it's weed,"
821
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,280
or whatever it is.
822
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,800
By having it in an olive oil,
it's something that's relatable
823
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,560
already to everyone here,
and I would use blogs
824
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,680
and try to educate, because
it's a growing market as it is.
825
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,400
It's projected to hit a billion
by 2025.
826
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,360
So we know it's going to be a thing.
827
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,400
Do you think you've got
a competitive price mark?
828
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,080
Our natural is 39.99,
829
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:36,160
but with that you get 33 servings
of 30 milligrams of CBD.
830
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:37,680
That's every day for a month.
831
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,560
Ladies and gentlemen, join me in
thanking Andy for his presentation.
832
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,240
Thank you so much.
833
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,240
APPLAUSE
834
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,200
Did that seem...? Did it look good?
Did it sound good?
835
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,560
Looked good, sounded good,
and any question that you had,
836
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,640
you answered respectively,
and I think... Oh!
837
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,680
..you're going to win this shit!
838
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,880
Oh, my God. I'm so proud of you,
honestly. Thank you.
839
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,120
Couldn't be more proud.
840
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,000
APPLAUSE
841
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,000
And finally, it's Sam's turn
to face the crowd.
842
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,080
Hi, everyone. My name's Sam
and I am the founder of
843
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:06,720
Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
844
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:09,600
Many years ago, me and my
best friend went to America
845
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,160
and I tried a seafood boil
for the first time.
846
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,160
I've had lobster, I've had crab,
847
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,120
I've had prawns, potatoes and corn.
848
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,960
But never in the way that
it was presented in that bag.
849
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,560
And the flavour profile, my God.
850
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,800
When I came back to London, I
realised there was nothing like it.
851
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:31,280
I've created this amazing sauce. You
know, it's our gift to Scotland.
852
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,520
It's the Scot Seafood Sauce.
853
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,080
A lot of you have tried it and
I saw some of you drinking it,
854
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,480
so I know it's good!
855
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,480
SHE LAUGHS
856
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,880
And that is what I want to see.
We're going to play the video now
857
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,560
and then,
yeah, let's see if you like it!
858
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,800
Hi, guys. We've got this
859
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,640
limited edition Scot Seafood Sauce
from Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
860
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,960
Today, we're going to try it
and see what it's all about.
861
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,080
The whisky, the haggis...
862
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,920
So we've just finished
the Scot Seafood Sauce
863
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,680
from Hot N Juicy Shrimp LDN.
It's really, really good.
864
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,520
It's... The flavours are so bold.
865
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:13,280
It's just... You want more seafood
so you can have more sauce.
866
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:14,560
APPLAUSE
867
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,360
Hi, Sam, what's the main
ingredient in there?
868
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,200
Because I believe it's butter? Yes.
869
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,280
And with raw materials going up -
870
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,520
wheat, flour, fats... Yeah.
..you know,
871
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,360
how are you going to make sure
you deliver value for money?
872
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,920
That is an ingredient within
there that I want to reduce
873
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,560
and that as well will allow the
price on the shelf
874
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,720
to reduce as well. Sir. Thank you.
875
00:40:36,720 --> 00:40:39,400
You might want to sell your product
in supermarkets... Yes.
876
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,320
..and I was just wondering, where do
you see that sat in the supermarket?
877
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,200
So right now our sauce has a
shelf life of 30 days,
878
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,000
seven days from when you've opened
it. We're currently in...
879
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,640
..doing testing for 90 days,
880
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,200
so it is going to be on the shelf in
supermarkets.
881
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,600
Having, like, Gordon's expertise and
the funding,
882
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,240
we're going to grow fast,
so that we can be on every shelf
883
00:41:00,240 --> 00:41:02,720
in the UK and go global with it.
884
00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:04,600
Please, give it up for Sam.
Thank you.
885
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,200
APPLAUSE
886
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:11,720
Ya-a-a-a!
887
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:13,760
And the crowd went wild.
888
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,120
Ya-a-a-a!
889
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:16,680
THEY BOTH LAUGH
890
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:20,000
Aw...! I think I've really proven
myself.
891
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:24,320
I'm just praying that Gordon
sees...me
892
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:28,600
and he wants to bet on me and
invest in me and back my company.
893
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,800
That would mean the world.
894
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:32,640
I think I am the most investable.
895
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,360
You know, it's not signified by
whether I make a 30-second video
896
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,120
in an hour well -
it's me, as a person,
897
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,360
what I have inside me, like,
the fire in me,
898
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,480
that I want to be the best.
I expect that from myself.
899
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,960
I absolutely feel like
I've done enough.
900
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:51,200
Gordon can see how passionate
I am, how capable I am.
901
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,800
I am more than happy with myself.
902
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,080
More than happy.
903
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,400
Before I leave, I want to get
feedback from the experts
904
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:01,560
on my finalists.
905
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,160
Let's start off with Amy.
Were you happy with the flavour?
906
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,800
Really good. Yeah. The flavours
are very good, very moreish.
907
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,000
There's a LOT of sugar in that
product.
908
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,080
And the way that we're moving,
thinking more about health,
909
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,360
I would be a bit worried about that.
Pretty good point.
910
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,080
Sir? She's an entrepreneur.
You can see that.
911
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,520
Completely on our own,
doing everything from A to Z. Yeah.
912
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,120
And I think the scalability is
really, really challenging. Yeah.
913
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,360
Next...
914
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,520
Possibly one of the most
precarious finalists.
915
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:27,600
Andy.
916
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,160
Retail price was, you know,
a concern.
917
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,880
It's an emerging market,
which is really exciting,
918
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,240
but we need to educate people
on how to use the product,
919
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:37,080
and nowhere on the bottle did it say
920
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,200
how much you need to use
in a portion.
921
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,280
It's mostly a supplement,
922
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,560
and people are using it
for real-world problems,
923
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,960
and I think his marketing
doesn't really match,
924
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,480
like, what he's saying in person.
It's very confusing.
925
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,760
So we should be treading with
caution. Yeah.
926
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,640
Finally, Sam.
927
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,520
Taste, it's really good and it's a
new cuisine, bringing to the UK,
928
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,880
so I think she's got something
exciting there.
929
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,640
She says she wants to sell
to supermarkets.
930
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,800
It's quite difficult, but there's
obviously an opportunity there that,
931
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,920
if she gets it right, that she could
get scale pretty quickly.
932
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,760
It's a very, very high-cost product.
933
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,840
The first product is butter,
934
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,600
and I think the recommended
retail price on this is way too high
935
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,920
on a very crowded marketplace.
936
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,200
Your feedback has given me a lot
to think about and made,
937
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,920
I think, my final decision
even more difficult.
938
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,240
Good luck! And I need it.
939
00:43:26,240 --> 00:43:27,560
THEY LAUGH
940
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,240
Cheers. Cheers.
You have to make eye contact, Craig.
941
00:43:48,240 --> 00:43:50,960
I know, sorry... Seven years
bad sex if you don't...
942
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:52,480
The band is back together.
943
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,120
God, I'm so excited!
944
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,880
Right, sh, sh, sh, sh...!
They're coming!
945
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,200
Oh, wow!
946
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,280
Hello!
947
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:01,800
THEY GREET EACH OTHER
948
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,520
OVERLAPPING SPEECH
949
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,440
Well done, you've done amazing.
Well done.
950
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,440
Aw, mate! So proud of you.
951
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,160
Cheers! Cheers.
952
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,440
Hello. Hello! Hello.
953
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,280
Right, welcome back. The finale!
954
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,440
How are we feeling? Good. Good...
955
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,760
First of all, welcome back...the
previous contenders.
956
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,680
Thank you. Also, I'd like
to extend a big thank you
957
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,600
to Rachel, Kier and Hebe.
958
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,040
Thank you, all three of you.
959
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:41,080
Eight weeks ago, I met you all
for the very first time
960
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:44,960
in the grounds of
that stunning castle in Scotland.
961
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:49,320
I told you that I selected you all
because you have some
962
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,360
of the most exciting food and drink
businesses anywhere in the UK.
963
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,720
But for me, I was very clear that
I wasn't interested
964
00:44:56,720 --> 00:44:58,120
in just the concept.
965
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,840
I was interested in the person
behind it and whether I felt
966
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,320
they had what it takes
to succeed in business.
967
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:11,840
Amy, Andy, and Sam, you all
excelled across those challenges.
968
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,120
If you get an investment from me,
969
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:15,960
I'm not interested in a small-scale.
970
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:20,200
I'm keen to see these businesses
go global.
971
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:25,600
That's why I set you a task to
create a limited edition version
972
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,760
of your products
for the Scottish market.
973
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,840
All three of you should know that
yesterday was a huge eye-opener
974
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:36,000
for me, and I had some incredible
experts from all your fields
975
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:40,360
in that audience, and the feedback
they gave me was pretty incredible.
976
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,800
So, the time has come
for your final grilling.
977
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,360
This one is crucial for me
because I've been through
978
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,160
all your businesses
with a fine-tooth comb.
979
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,680
And now I really want
to interrogate them.
980
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:59,880
This is your last chance to prove
to me that you're the right person
981
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:02,800
to get this life-changing
investment.
982
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,880
Amy, Andy, and Sam, I want to see
all three of you in the restaurant.
983
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:09,200
Good luck.
984
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:19,560
Andy, sit down, please.
985
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,200
Sam, take a seat, please.
986
00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:26,440
Amy, sit down, please.
987
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,840
What an incredibly tough
eight weeks to get to this point.
988
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:36,520
Congrats. What's got you into this
position,
989
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,120
sat in front of me now?
990
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:43,640
For me, it was my ability within
all of the tasks to win.
991
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,880
Every single team challenge,
mini-challenges, I've won.
992
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,880
I've listened to the brief, every
critique that you've given me,
993
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,200
I've taken on board,
I've adapted. And, at the end of it,
994
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:54,760
come up with a product that's won.
995
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,400
I work hard every day.
996
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,560
You know, I was raised
in a household, very humble,
997
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:02,840
didn't have much. My mum worked
several jobs,
998
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,000
just really taught me how to grind
and graft and make ends meet.
999
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,440
You know, personally,
I want to transcend what it is
1000
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,280
to be from a council estate and
really make something of yourself.
1001
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:16,480
There's nothing to lose by pushing
myself to my limits
1002
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:20,320
and further than that,
because I want you to be a part
1003
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:23,040
of Hot N Juicy -
like, more than anything.
1004
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,680
Let's dive into the business. Yeah.
1005
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,360
I've looked into your blondies,
1006
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,320
and then I broke down the recipe.
1007
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:36,280
511 calories per bar. Mm-hm.
1008
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,160
43g of sugar.
1009
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,920
That doesn't scream healthy,
does it?
1010
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,080
No. And it's not supposed to be
healthy.
1011
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,320
I get that, but it's not even
moderate, is it?
1012
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,480
You have a responsibility
to check the sugar levels,
1013
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,240
the saturated fats. Yes.
1014
00:47:53,240 --> 00:47:56,480
And the government guidelines are
putting pressure to rein that in.
1015
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,680
Have you tried that yet?
No. No?
1016
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,000
No.
1017
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,440
I didn't know that
the recipe needed revising.
1018
00:48:05,720 --> 00:48:07,880
But we can take it back
to the drawing board
1019
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,560
because, at the moment,
I'm one woman in a house.
1020
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,960
With your skill set and my
skill set, together, being able to
1021
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:16,760
address that and then scale that
up...
1022
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,840
Yeah. ..I have no qualms
that that would work.
1023
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:22,800
I suppose what my worry is, that you
haven't thought about any of this.
1024
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,760
Whilst I'm excited
about this blondie,
1025
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,480
how long can it be around for
if you're not adapting
1026
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,240
to the pressures we're faced with?
1027
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,920
In business, we thrive
on transparency. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1028
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,800
And whilst I was excited
about the CBD content
1029
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:39,560
and the multiple usages,
1030
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,880
you're advertising it as
something of a healing process. OK.
1031
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:45,120
And it's not.
1032
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:48,160
This is not something I push to
people and try and sell it
1033
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,960
as a curant to all things.
It's definitely not what I do.
1034
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,880
I know that there's... I'm not
allowed to make medicinal claims.
1035
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,520
Well, it's not about you're not
allowed to make claims -
1036
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,320
we need to be certified. Yes.
We need to be bang to rights
1037
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,680
on what we can use. Mm-hm.
The dosage needs to be measured,
1038
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:03,400
needs to be controlled,
1039
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:07,680
and not just used as if, "Hey, this
is olive oil that's better for you."
1040
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:08,960
It's not a healing process.
1041
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:11,560
Let's talk about another issue.
1042
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,680
On the bottle of your
extra virgin olive oil... Mm-hm.
1043
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,320
..the minute it's been diluted...
It's... Yeah.
1044
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,360
..infused, flavoured, it's not
extra virgin olive oil.
1045
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:26,360
It's sloppy mistakes that
you've got to be accountable for
1046
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,840
and I don't want to spend this
investment unwinding
1047
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,640
everything you've just spent the
last two years doing.
1048
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:35,760
Let me show you something. Mm-hm.
1049
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,360
So, a general order to go. Mm-hm.
1050
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,400
I've got my large container,
I've got extras,
1051
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,640
I've got my sauce, my bibs.
1052
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,640
And then the bag that everything's
in. Yeah.
1053
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,440
Is any of this biodegradable?
1054
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:52,760
Erm, no.
1055
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,240
These are all things
that have been looking at. Sure.
1056
00:49:56,240 --> 00:49:59,800
And I was in contact with a
supplier in China to create,
1057
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:02,600
like, a cardboard box that
is biodegradable,
1058
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,160
that we can serve our food in.
1059
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,200
This is not a good practice, is it?
1060
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,520
No. No.
1061
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:13,400
One of my big concerns, and it was
shared by those experts in Glasgow,
1062
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,960
how is your blondies business
going to stand out
1063
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,840
in a already crowded market?
1064
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,000
You've asked us about going global.
1065
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,600
To Sam's own admission, she brought
this thing over from America
1066
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,040
and she's the only person
doing it in the UK.
1067
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,720
If you want a seafood boil
in the US,
1068
00:50:31,720 --> 00:50:33,960
why would they buy a British brand?
1069
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,600
And it's the same with CBD.
1070
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,120
CBD in the US is absolutely booming,
1071
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,120
so they've brought these big ideas
to the UK,
1072
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,120
and I'm the other way around.
1073
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,440
You take my blondies over there
1074
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:46,960
and it's something completely new.
1075
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:50,720
Um, do you know where blondies
were created and originated from?
1076
00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:51,760
No.
1077
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,360
Boston. Were they?
1078
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,360
They are rife
and they are in abundance.
1079
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,960
Never... I'd never seen them. How...
Yeah, I'm amazed.
1080
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,720
Let's talk about the usage,
shall we?
1081
00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:06,360
How many ways can you use this oil?
1082
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:07,920
So you can cook with it,
1083
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,360
you can have it marinaded, or as
you would normal olive oil.
1084
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,680
On your website, you're advertising
you can roast vegetables in it.
1085
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,560
Yeah. The most expensive product
on your website is...? 124.99
1086
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,560
124.99. Premium product.
I get that. Mm-hm.
1087
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,400
But in all honesty, there's no-one
in this country today is going to
1088
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,920
buy that to roast their vegetables
in. It's just too expensive.
1089
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:29,880
I know that I was going
to have these issues,
1090
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,520
to be honest with you, Gordon.
I came in here really prepared
1091
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,800
to be hounded because I know that
this is going to be
1092
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,280
one of the hardest things to push.
1093
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:39,400
And part of your investment
would go in to bring down the costs.
1094
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,520
When it is correct and when it is
right and it has all of them things
1095
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:43,920
going forward, it's something
1096
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,000
that's going to completely change
the market.
1097
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,800
The trio of lobster tails cost
how much?
1098
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,360
Um, I think 30-something pounds.
1099
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,800
I looked up on the website.
It was close to 45 quid,
1100
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:57,440
a trio of lobsters. OK, yeah.
1101
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:00,120
It worries me you don't even know
your own pricing.
1102
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,800
These are not cheap.
1103
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,040
Are you in danger of pricing
yourself out of the market? No.
1104
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,520
People understand that it's
premium ingredients,
1105
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,000
so the price can't be low.
1106
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,640
But there's a vast majority of
the public that can't afford it.
1107
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,960
Is your business London-centric?
Will it only work in London?
1108
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:19,600
No. I would like to have franchises
of Hot N Juicy
1109
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:25,440
in different countries, whether
that's Nigeria, Dubai, Miami, Tokyo.
1110
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,000
And then, obviously, also the sauce
to go global as well.
1111
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,720
And what are you making per year?
1112
00:52:29,720 --> 00:52:34,720
Last year was 360,000, profit.
1113
00:52:34,720 --> 00:52:38,760
Monthly overheads? Around 30,000.
1114
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:40,920
What are you spending 30 grand
a month on?!
1115
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,320
The cost of shellfish, crab,
lobster, prawns,
1116
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,120
then we've got our rent, staff
costs...
1117
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,160
Wow. That's a big expenditure.
1118
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,240
You're up against two other
businesses like yours. Mm-hm.
1119
00:52:53,240 --> 00:52:55,680
Young, dynamic, talented,
individual.
1120
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,240
Why should I invest in yours?
1121
00:52:57,240 --> 00:53:00,840
In the UK, I'm the only person that
solely does blondies
1122
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,720
and I do them very, very well.
1123
00:53:02,720 --> 00:53:06,440
I want the unit. I want the staff.
1124
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:11,680
I want that support behind me so
that I can concentrate on driving
1125
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:16,360
the business bigger and developing
into different areas of the market,
1126
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,600
and just expanding across the UK
and globally. Good.
1127
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,320
I started with the same beginning
that you did.
1128
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:23,800
I had a passion that I lost.
1129
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,040
I appreciate that. There was
a little glint in your eye,
1130
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,840
walking out of that stadium,
and I saw a slight...
1131
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:34,000
..me in you. But are you worth
betting on? Absolutely.
1132
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:38,040
I understand it's a risk for you,
but I know what we can create.
1133
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:39,440
So I just hope you choose me.
1134
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,640
I hope you see that I am the best
option, and I won't let you down.
1135
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,760
There's no other business in the UK
that does what we do
1136
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,280
the way we do it.
1137
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:52,040
This is the perfect time to invest
in us because we're ready
1138
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:53,960
to take the world by storm.
1139
00:53:53,960 --> 00:54:00,240
I have a versatile brand that people
love, regardless of the cost.
1140
00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:04,560
Sam, thank you.
Thank you for your time, Gordon.
1141
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,280
Thank you, Andy.
Thank you, Gordon.
1142
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,080
Thank you, Amy.
Thank you so much.
1143
00:54:20,720 --> 00:54:23,840
Unbeknown to the finalists, I've
invited their friends and family
1144
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,240
along for support.
1145
00:54:25,240 --> 00:54:27,760
How are you doing?
1146
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:28,920
OVERLAPPING SPEECH
1147
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,640
What...?
THEY CHEER EXCITEDLY
1148
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:38,400
Ooh, who's this?!
1149
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:40,560
Oh, my baby!
1150
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,880
Aw! Oh, my baby!
1151
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,320
AMY: Come here!
1152
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:48,280
What is it?
1153
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:49,880
Aw, bless... Good to see you.
1154
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:51,840
Come on. Come on, boy!
1155
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:53,560
SHE LAUGHS
1156
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,080
WHISPERS: Hello, look at you!
1157
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,880
Amy, Andy and Sam,
1158
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,440
can you step forward, please?
1159
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:12,000
I have three worthy finalists
in front of me tonight.
1160
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,680
I now have to make
a very difficult decision.
1161
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:20,920
I'm going to be honest - all three
businesses come with a risk.
1162
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,560
Amy, you are your business.
1163
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,680
And that's what makes it
so appealing to me.
1164
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,680
But it's also my biggest concern.
1165
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,040
Will you be able to maintain
that level of consistency
1166
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,840
as we scale the business?
1167
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:38,800
But there's no doubt you
are front and centre of your brand.
1168
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:42,160
Andy, your business,
I'm going to be honest,
1169
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,440
is by far one of the most riskiest.
1170
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:49,040
But it could come with one
of the biggest rewards.
1171
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,640
And, you, young man, as a person,
clearly have that drive
1172
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:54,360
to make your business succeed.
1173
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,760
Sam, I love the ambition.
1174
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,280
I suppose the question for me is,
1175
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,840
can it work
outside your London bubble?
1176
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,640
OK. I've made my mind up.
1177
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,000
My Future Food Star.
1178
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,840
Congratulations goes to...
1179
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,080
..Andy.
1180
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:23,960
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1181
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,680
Andy, how're you feeling?
1182
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,680
HE CHUFFS
1183
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,160
I mean, it's...incredible
to hear you say it.
1184
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,440
Yeah, I feel amazing. Wow.
1185
00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:40,080
Congratulations, young man.
Thank you.
1186
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,200
I went for Andy, even though it
may have been a risky choice.
1187
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:46,400
If anyone can make it a success,
it will be him,
1188
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,440
so I'm very excited to see
where we can take this product
1189
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:51,240
under my guidance.
1190
00:56:51,240 --> 00:56:53,200
Amy and Sam, great ideas.
1191
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,120
I think it's just the start for
both of you.
1192
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,360
I'll be watching you
very, very closely.
1193
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:00,560
Andy's a fellow Londoner,
so I'm happy that he's won.
1194
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:04,000
But, you know, regardless, I'm still
going to grow my empire.
1195
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:05,800
We're still going to go global.
1196
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,000
I feel disappointed, but I've
learned more about myself
1197
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,440
in eight weeks than I
have in the last ten years.
1198
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,120
It's incredible.
1199
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:16,600
Well done...
1200
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:18,080
Well done.
1201
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,960
This is just the beginning of, like,
what I have worked so hard for
1202
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:25,480
and I've got a lot to do,
but I work with Gordon now.
1203
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,920
Gordon's my business partner!
