Which Dragon's Den investor joined the British show in series 2?

Theo Paphitis joined the British show Dragon's Den in series 2.

The first series featured the original panel of Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Rachel Elnaugh, Simon Woodroffe and Doug Richard. Paphitis entered the programme's investor lineup for the second series, bringing a background in retail and brand development.

His best-known business association is Ryman, the stationery retailer he acquired in 1995. That experience shaped the kind of pitches and consumer businesses he often examined on the programme.

Series numbers are easy to confuse because the show has had many dragons and several changes of panel. Paphitis's arrival belongs to the early years, well before later investors such as Sara Davies, Touker Suleyman and Steven Bartlett appeared on the programme.
