2. Absolutely one of the best programmes I've seen. am totally hooked on it. It's a pity I missed some of the episodes though, esp those where you were selling in Shanghai and China since I deal with the Chinese market. But still, it's a good job, Conor!

5. After a year of the worst programmes that I have ever seen and more repeats than you can shake a stick at. Along comes Conor Woodman with this little 'Gem' that blows the other networks right out of the water. Conor has tapped into our psyche of making money seeing the World and having some fun and adventure just so comprehensively that we all want to be him. It's not often I love a programme this much but it really had me absolutely hooked. Look at the comments Channel 4 and commission another series as when watching this the 'Credit Crunch' just seemed so far away. P.S. please can I come with you on your next trip? no harming in dreaming but what an amazing programme and I would vote for Conor as the peoples entrepreneur.

6. It was brilliant program and I learnt a lot about how to deal with people in different places in term of business. How conor could ship goods from one country to another? He had business documents that give him authorisation to export and import goods? Thanks

7. I think Connor had an excellent in sourcing the teak in the way that he did - it is a shame that the credit crunch damaged what would have been pby his best trade of the lot.

8. I would like to know what the problem was with the wood. Is there somebody that can answer this for me as I am in the business and would like to talk to the company he sold it to. We can supply proper sustainable wood for less than Connor and it will have all the required documentation.

9. I found the whole series so fascinating I was looking forward to the rest of the 69 trades that the title suggests. Would love to see this on DVD with loads of extras including Conor's out come with Dawn Furniture.

10. What exactly was wrong with one of the batches of teak (it mentioned something in the credits at the end of the programme)?

13. Superb stuff, Conor. We enjoyed watching your coffee trading immensely at Mercanta! Your coverage of this complex market was fair, balanced, concise, informative and very entertaining. Excellent job!
