Your Garden Made Perfect - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
Demi and Laura
Angela Scanlon presents the show in which couples have their gardens transformed. But before they choose which of two potential redesigns they go for, they get a chance to see how it will look using virtual reality technology.
Neil and Clare
Following on from the successful and innovative Your Home Made Perfect, Angela Scanlon returns with a similar series that uses the same remarkable technology to reinvent garden spaces into a true extension of people's homes.
Neil and Clare have a garden that is relatable to many, uninspiring and rarely used. One thing it does have however is a stunning view of rural Cheshire, but the pair cannot agree on how to turn it into a practical space suitable for the whole family. Clare wants somewhere quiet to have a coffee and read a book, whilst Neil wants a space for entertaining all year round. The biggest design challenge they face is making the view feel part of their garden as currently it just makes the plot feel small. Further complicating matters, Neil has known the garden all his life so there are lots of memories of his late father.
Pam and Marcus
Pam and Marcus have a big garden surrounded by large established trees, which stretches away from their suburban home in St Albans, Hertfordshire. It has been home to football goals, trampolines and other familiar play paraphernalia for years whilst the kids have occupied it.
But the couple have decided that it's finally time for a big change. The children have grown up, and Pam and Marcus are ready to transform the garden into a space for themselves. Pam dreams of a wildlife oasis, while Marcus wants something more practical in keeping with his garden sheds. After years of staring at their long garden with its strip of scruffy lawn, it's finally time to do something about it - but they cannot imagine where to start.
Suzanne and Andy
Suzanne and Andrew have a huge problem in their lives: a derelict, crater-sized swimming pool in their back garden in Plymouth. When they bought the house, they dreamt of lounging around on their sunbaked south-coast riviera with friends and family, but the reality has been a nightmare.
A succession of landscaping companies have run a mile the moment they gaze into the abyss, but Suzanne and Andrew are determined to transform this treacherous space into the garden of their dreams. Their budget doesn't even stretch to simply filling it in, so how can they transform this empty pool into anything resembling a garden?
Tracey and Jake
Tracey and Jake have a decent-sized, south-facing garden in West Sussex, but the space simply doesn't work for their family. As a full time wheelchair user, Tracey struggles to navigate the tricky slopes and awkward drops of the garden and gets frustrated that she can only venture into certain parts without assistance. Jake, meanwhile, finds the space uninspiring and gets tired of trying to keep it all looking neat and tidy. He dreams of a low maintenance solution. Their daughter Poppy would love the garden to be somewhere she can escape into and enjoy alone or with her parents.
Mandy and Chris
Mandy and Chris adore their Victorian home in Manchester, but they cannot unlock the potential of their garden. Overlooked on all sides, the couple feel on edge and exposed whenever they spend time in it. They have considered adding hedges and big trees to give them more privacy, but they don't want to lose the light.
The couple also disagree on how they intend to enjoy the garden - Chris craves warmth, so she loves nothing more than lying in the sun, while Mandy wants to be in the shade. With so many conflicting issues, they are at a loss over how to move forward.
Recently Updated Shows
Son of a Critch
Based on the award-winning, best-selling memoir from Mark Critch. This new original comedy is the hilarious and very real story of 11-year-old Mark coming of age in St. John's, Newfoundland in the 80s. It's a heartfelt window into the life of a child – much older inside than his 11 years – using comedy and self-deprecation to win friends and connect with the small collection of people in his limited world.
The Last Woodsmen
The Last Woodsmen takes us deep into the secluded wilderness with these courageous and highly skilled loggers as they literally risk their lives. It's a rarely explored, dangerous business which translates to incredibly engrossing television.
On a floating barge hundreds of miles from civilization, veteran logger Jared Douglas puts everything on the line to harvest the largest timber in the world. One misstep in this high-risk industry could cost tens of thousands of dollars, or even a life. Joining him at the edge of the world is a tight-knit crew of lumbermen who, with only axes and hand-held power saws, take down massive, highly valuable trees that can be worth up to $70K each.
WWE Monday Night RAW
WWE Monday Night RAW is World Wrestling Entertainment's (formerly the WWF and the WWWF before that) premiere wrestling event and brand. Since its launch in 1993, WWE Monday Night RAW continues to air live on Monday nights. It is generally seen as the company's flagship program due to its prolific history, high ratings, weekly live format, and emphasis on pay-per-views. Monday Night RAW is high profile enough to attract frequent visits from celebrities who usually serve as guest hosts for a single live event. Since its first episode, the show has been broadcast live or recorded from more than 197 different arenas in 165 cities and towns in seven different nations: including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom twice a year, Afghanistan for a special Tribute to the Troops, Germany, Japan, Italy and Mexico.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015.
Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!
