'Hustle', 'Dragons' Den' for crossover

[dutchman]

Three of the Dragons from Dragons' Den are to appear as themselves in an upcoming episode of Hustle.

In the episode, the gang's mark Mervyn - guest star Danny Mays - is seen appearing on the BBC business show in an attempt to convince the Dragons to invest in a sham idea.

In Mervyn's fantasy, the three Dragons - Deborah Meaden, Peter Jones and Duncan Bannatyne - are all competing with each other to invest as he is such a "fantastic businessman".

An insider told DS: "The three Dragons seemed to have a great time on set, and were really good sports. It was somewhat different to their usual filming experience though!"

The episode will air February 1 on BBC One.
