Jenny Campbell was replaced by Sara Davies when Davies joined the Dragon’s Den panel in 2019.
Campbell, a businesswoman known for her work in financial services and technology, joined the programme in series 15. She later announced her departure after series 16, explaining that she wanted to focus on her family and business interests. Sara Davies then joined for series 17.
The transition marked a change in the panel’s composition rather than a direct business partnership between the two women. Davies brought experience from Crafter’s Companion and the craft-products sector, while Campbell had a background that included payment services and financial technology.
Panel changes can be difficult to track because the programme’s series numbers, filming schedules and broadcast dates do not always line up neatly. The relevant sequence is Campbell in series 15 and 16, followed by Davies from series 17 in 2019.
