    Dragons Den's James Caan Offers to Buy Pakistani Baby on TV

    Dragons' Den entrepreneur James Caan has sparked dismay after he was filmed offering to buy a baby from a poverty-stricken family.

    The Pakistani-born star was in the country filming an ITV report about his charity work when he was handed a newborn baby girl.

    Moments after taking the baby in his arms in a flood-hit village, he offers to buy the child for 100,000 rupees – about £700 – to give to his brother.

    However, the Dragon today claimed he had only spoken out in the heat of the moment, in the heat of an emotional situation, and quickly realised the baby should not be moved from its family or village

    This is going to be aired later tonight in the UK. Just what the fuck was he thinking?

    Dragons Den is a silly reality show where a panel of millionaires listens to people pitch their ideas for products/services/inventions and decide whether or not they want to invest in it. As usual, I can't imagine why anyone cares what people do outside their TV shows.
