DRAGONS' Den viewers were left raging 'What a load of c**p!' as a business flogged £125k tickets to the MOON in a 'bonkers' pitch.
Fans and investors were shocked as the entrepreneurs pitched their space travel company seeking investment on last night's episode of the BBC show.

At the end Dave and Barry revealed they had no bookings and they ended up with no investments from the Dragons.
Viewers were also far from impressed with the business idea, and took to X/Twitter to share their thoughts.

A second added: "I once went on Dragons' Den to sell tickets to space."
A third fumed: "This is a load of crap. Paying £20k deposit for a space travel expedition that will not happen in your lifetime!’
