Bristol - Strawberry Square

This week Anneka, Phil and Joe find themselves helping two schools in Bristol who have formed an unlikely partnership. While the Student Support Centre helps students who have been excluded from mainstream schools, New Fosseway School focuses on kids with severe learning difficulties. Although on the same school campus, the two schools are separated by an unused garden, which they want to share to bring their pupils closer together.

Can The Flowerpot Gang leave a lasting legacy for the two schools? We'll find out and Anneka will let viewers know how they can join in and help put the finishing touches to next week's garden in London.

East London

In this programme, the Flowerpot Gang are at a housing estate in Poplar, east London. The children here are unable to use the estate's open spaces. With antisocial behaviour a persistent problem, many of the gates remain permanently locked and as a result, hundreds of families only have tiny balconies to play on and hardly any space to grow things.

So can the Flowerpot Gang help the community resurrect one of the unused spaces? And will families start to use it again and discover the power of gardening?

Have I Got News for You

Based on the week's news, Have I Got News for You is fronted by guest hosts and features two regular team captains, Paul Merton and Ian Hislop. Each week the show invites two guests to cast a jaundiced eye over the week's news, resulting in a fast flow of anarchic, spontaneous and hugely entertaining wit and humour. Guests typically represent the world of politics, comedy, show-business and journalism, and are often themselves particularly newsworthy participants. The final touches of Have I Got News for You are put together only hours before recording, allowing guests to comment on the late-breaking news stories of the day.
