In which city is the British television programme Dragon's Den filmed at MediaCityUK?

The story behind the answer

The British television programme Dragon's Den is filmed at MediaCityUK in Salford.

MediaCityUK is a large mixed-use development at Salford Quays, on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal. It became a major centre for broadcasting and creative industries, with facilities used by the BBC and other media organisations. Dragon's Den is among the programmes associated with the site.

The location often causes a geographical mix-up because MediaCityUK is part of Greater Manchester and lies very close to Manchester. The legally distinct city is Salford, however, so “Manchester” is not the most precise answer to this question.

The move to the MediaCityUK complex reflected the concentration of BBC production in the area. The site includes studios, offices, broadcast facilities, restaurants, and public spaces, making it more than a television studio alone.
