The Boland Guest List Wednesday 14th April.
He's known as the bad boy of ballroom - renowned for a hot head and an even hotter love life. But Boland’s first guest, Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole is actually a bit of a softie. He is a controversial figure on the program often getting into trouble with the judges for performing illegal lifts. He is now performing in 'Brendan Cole - Live and Unjudged' a dance show with a difference. Love him or hate him the show allows you to meet the real Brendan.
In the cruel old China, baby girls were often left to die in the gutters. In the cruel modern China, they are aborted by the tens of millions, using all the latest technology. There is an ugly new word for this mass slaughter - Gendercide. Since 1979 China has limited many families to one child and combined with this they have a ruthless prejudice in favour of sons. Millions of girls have disappeared, either being killed, aborted or neglect and the number is rising. By the year 2020 there will be 30 million more men than women of marriageable age in China. Boland’s next guests Clifford Coonan is the correspondent for the Independent in Beijing.

Being a Wednesday the second hour of the Boland Show is Enterprise where Maurice introduces us to three very talented entrepreneurs. First up is David Bailey and his wife Patti who appeared on Dragons Den last year pitching Motormouse which is a car design computer mouse in which James Cann invested £120,000 for a 40% stake in the company. Both David and Patti are successful consultants specialising in the development of sales people and sales effectiveness. The new cooperation will also include David’s other inventions , as well as their property business.

And finally two very successful entrepreneurs Andrew Skeen and Omari Bowers, were busy making their fortune as property entrepreneurs when the market started to crumble it was time to look for other opportunities. This is when they came across Global Forestry Investments a company that expects to turn over 6-7 million pounds this year and acquire 10,000 hectares of rainforest.. www.globalforestryinvestments.com
