Revisited: Cheltenham, Aylesbury and Bristol
Season 10, Episode 10
Charlie Dimmock revisits some of her favourite gardens on the show. Five years ago, the team transformed Peter and Samantha's plot in Cheltenham into an exotic paradise. Charlie returns to find the garden thriving, with Peter working on new projects. She also reunites with Kevin and Elaine, who wanted a garden that recreated the feel of their time living in Turkey. The final catch-up is with Vanessa in Bristol. Her vision was for a wildlife-friendly garden with a Moroccan touch where she could spend time with her two sons, as well as be an adult space for entertaining
