Gareth and Brian Smith walked into the Den in Season 9, Episode 7 in the episode that aired 12 September 2011. Crips, the low fat snack crisps, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

On the carpet, the number was £250,000 for a 10% stake, which valued the company at £2.5M.

The dragons passed, and Crips left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Dragons’ Den's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Dragons’ Den effect") to drive sales the dragons missed out on.

Crips was one of 80 businesses to pitch in Season 9, where 16 deals got done. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
