why would you want to take your doorbell into the garden surely if someone saw you in the garden they wouldnt just speak to you rhter than asking you for the doorbell so they could ring it
the doorbell button would still be on your front door. It was the 'rining' part that was portable, so if you were in the backgarden and someone pressed your doorbell, you would be able to hear it.

that's what mobile phones are for!
I quite enjoy this program too. Haven't seen the last two but I have them recorded so I'll watch them at the weekend.
The guy with the egg cooker made me laugh but I did think it was a good idea.

I'm talking early-mid 80s! I agree about the egg cooker - I am rubbish at doing soft-boiled eggs so I would buy one

She was funny, good way to win the investors over - suggest that because they're rich they don't look after their kids and they just get a nanny to do it for them.  She was almost as good as the bloke who tried to give the multi-millionaire successful entrepeneurs business lessons at every opportunity

hehe...He was amazing. Couldn't open his mouth without issuing business maxims.
How about 'see thru' trousers...they change appearance depending on the underwear you are (or aren't) wearing. The guy with the 'multi-gym armchair' was funny as hell and took it all in the right spirit.

I love this show. Some of the ideas are hilarious. The sun lounger guy was a gem. The transparent wellington boot woman had me cringing when she forgot things about her product and had no idea what gross profit was.
More shows like this! Less big brother crap!

Sorry Claire but these exist, we have one at home. I know!!!!! Reminds me of when I was a kid and my cousin was really into techy stuff and inventing. He spent months building a prototype of a cordless doorbell (that you could take out into your back garden etc), and was mighty peeved when he spotted one in an 'innovations' catalogue.
