Which BBC channel has broadcast the British television show Dragon's Den since its debut?

The story behind the answer

BBC Two has broadcast the British television show Dragon's Den since its debut.

The programme places entrepreneurs before a panel of investors, who are commonly called the Dragons. Each entrepreneur explains a business idea or existing company and proposes an investment deal. The Dragons can ask for further information, make offers, negotiate terms or decline to invest.

BBC Two has long been associated with factual, documentary and specialist programming, making it the original home of the British version. The show became one of the channel's best-known formats and developed a large audience beyond specialist business viewers.

BBC One, BBC Three and Channel 4 are all major British television channels, but none is the original UK broadcaster identified with Dragon's Den. International versions use different broadcasters and sometimes different titles, so the channel in this question specifically refers to the British programme.
