Cambridge's Hamfatter on BBC's "Dragon's Den"

Cambridge's popular local band Hamfatter reveal how they've spent their last few months, as they appear on BBC's popular prime-time reality TV show Dragon's Den.

Dragons' Den returns to our screens this summer for a sixth series.

Entrepreneurs pitch for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

The first series of Dragons' Den was transmitted on BBC2 in January 2005 and will return in July 2008 for a sixth series. The show follows an international format, and was first launched in Japan.

Hamfatter have headlined Strawberry Fair and had top 10 singles around the world. A selection of nice things people say:

Constantly refreshing... if only they'd hog the limelight a little more, cult collosaldom would be assured.

Hamfatter carry an arsenal of power-pop nuggets including the amazing 'Sziget' which deserves to be a hit.
