The new series of Dragons' Den is gearing up to start filming in just a few short weeks, and the show has marked the occasion by confirming the next line-up of dragons too.

And if you're thinking it all looks a bit familiar to you, well then you'd be right as the official line-up of dragons hasn't changed since the last time around, meaning the dragons will once again consist of Tej Lalvani, Jenny Campbell, Touker Suleyman, Deborah Meaden and Peter Jones.

Well, Peter Jones was a given really, having been with the show since day one.

Lalvani and Campbell both joined the show last year for its 15th season and replaced veteran investors Sarah Willingham and Nick Jenkins.

Speaking of his new gig at the time, Lalvani said: "I'm very excited to be joining the Dragons' Den line-up. I'm a shrewd investor and I'm looking forward to finding hard-working, passionate people to share my business experience and knowledge with."

The new dragons proved a huge hit when they made their debut on the series last year, and it wasn't longer before the steely-eyed businessmen and women turned brutal as they were faced with the best and the most bizarre business proposals that young entrepreneurs of Britain have to offer.

Dragons Den starts filming for its new season next month, and is expected to return to BBC Two later this year.
