The British series Dragon's Den was first broadcast by BBC Two.
The programme premiered on BBC Two in January 2005 and became one of the channel's best-known factual-entertainment formats. Its premise combines business advice, negotiation and reality television, with entrepreneurs pitching companies to a panel of potential investors.
BBC Two has traditionally been associated with factual, documentary and specialist programming, making it a natural home for a show centred on entrepreneurship and commercial decision-making. The series later gained a large audience and became a regular part of British television culture.
BBC One, ITV and Channel 4 have all carried other business or reality programmes, which can cause channel confusion. However, the original British Dragon's Den series began specifically on BBC Two, not on one of those networks.
