Our read

The Hub verdict

Half the company for £120,000 is a striking opening line, and that is how Ralf Klinnert pitched Funky Moves, his electronic interactive cone game, in series eight. The 50 percent offer values the business at £240,000 and signals a founder ready to take on a full partner rather than a passive backer. A deal was agreed on air, but the episode did not reveal the numbers it settled on, so we hold to what is documented: a willingness to split the company evenly for £120,000. The closing equity is not on record and we will not manufacture it. Where the game ended up after 2010 is an aftermath we would confirm, not the sort of thing to assume from a decade-old clip.

Worth knowing: The deal above is public record from the episode. We never treat an on-air handshake as proof a product is still for sale today.
