Dragons' Den is back and viewers couldn't be happier
Dragons' Den returned tonight (August 20) with the arrival of two new dragons and a whole host of entrepreneurs hoping to impress their way to an investment.
It's series 15 of the BBC One show (yes, really) so you'd think that the hopeful business people would have a good idea of how to impress the dragons and bag themselves some financial backing.
Of course, that wouldn't make good telly, so tonight's episode had its fair share of dodgy business models and sass from the dragons – but one product did catch viewers' and the dragons' eye.
Pouch, a web extension designed to save you money while you shop online, got the backing of all five dragons (rare) and left fans at home impressed.
They’ve got the pick of the bunch as all five dragons make offers! Ben and Jonny deliberate at the wise wall! #dragonsden

Ben and Jonny, the pair behind Pouch, eventually chose to opt for a three-way between three of the dragons: Touker, Jenny and Tej.
New dragons Jenny 'Ker-Ching' Campbell and 'Titan' Tej Lalvani entered the Den for the first time tonight (August 20), joining Touker Suleyman, and veterans Deborah Meaden and Peter Jones.
Jenny and Tej took over from retired Dragons Sarah Willingham and Nick Jenkins who left the show after series 14.
Dragons Den continues at 8pm on BBC One on Sunday, August 27.
