In what year did Touker Suleyman first join the UK television show Dragon's Den as a Dragon?

The story behind the answer

Touker Suleyman first joined the UK television show Dragon's Den as a Dragon in 2015.

Suleyman joined the investor panel for the thirteenth series. He is a British-Turkish entrepreneur whose business career has included fashion, clothing manufacture and retail. His commercial experience gave him particular interest in consumer products, brands and businesses with routes into shops and online sales.

His appointment continued the programme's practice of refreshing the panel as earlier Dragons departed. The show does not have a permanently fixed group of investors: different series have introduced new Dragons, while some investors have returned as guest or occasional panel members.

The year can be confused with 2014 or 2016 because series production and broadcast schedules overlap around the annual television cycle. The specific point is that Suleyman joined the regular UK panel in 2015, appearing in series 13.
