December 26[edit]

Dragons' Den (Canada, Season 4) of 21st episode:

Nemaglobe was pitched (similar to this) here. Usually, in special editions of Dragons' Den, the flashback clips are not original, so was this an exception? If not, which episode was Nemaglobe in?174.3.125.23 (talk) 01:30, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to this article, it was indeed just pitched on the Greenvention special episode. (I mean, come on. How many doses of Kevin O'Leary can one person stand?) Clarityfiend (talk) 23:59, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Music in ebay commercial[edit]

Does anyone know the title and performer of the Christmas song used in the current ebay ad in the UK? A couple of the lines go something like "on the 25th of the 12th / when Santa makes his yearly ride". I kept hearing it yesterday, but couldn't find anything through Google, and it's driving me nuts. Thanks in advance, 86.163.153.12 (talk) 12:34, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Search for the ad at youtube, an let us know which of these commercials. μηδείς (talk) 16:11, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the link, it's this one about selling unwanted gifts. Oh, and I seem to have got the wrong name, it's Rudolf rather than Santa. Thanks once again, 86.163.155.3 (talk) 09:53, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It sounds like it's by the Four Freshmen to me, but as I have to pay to download their tunes I'm not prepared to spend money to get the exact one. --TammyMoet (talk) 19:47, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently, it is a song called "The 25th of the 12th" by an artist called Bill Compton. You can stream it here or purchase it on iTunes. Hia10 (talk) 18:45, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
