Two new millionaires have joined the panel for the upcoming third series of Dragons' Den.
The first is Richard Farleigh, an Aussie multi-millionaire who specialises in investing in UK startups. His portfolio includes private members club Home House and technology company Wolfson. Farleigh first made his millions trading the world's financial markets.
Also joining the show is Deborah Meaden, who launched her own glass and ceramics export company before setting up one of the first Stefanel fashion franchises in the UK.
The pair replace Doug Richard and Rachel Elnaugh, who are leaving the den "to concentrate on their respective new business ventures". Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne and Theo Paphitis are all returning, as is Evan Davis as host.
The expanded, eight-episode series airs on BBC Two later this year. Two specials following entrepreneurs from the first two series are also planned.
