Your Garden Made Perfect — Season 2

Steph and her two children live in St Annes near Blackpool, where she wants to transform her dark, dilapidated garden into a calm space to practise yoga. Can two renowned designers help?

Andrew and Paolo are lumbered with a giant, oppressive retaining wall that dominates their garden. Can designers Tom Massey and Pip Probert find a way to integrate or work around this obstacle?

Debi and Des live in Enfield, London. Their beautiful family home has a generous urban plot, but it sits on a massive slope that is currently only used as an outdoor exercise space for Des, whose studio gym sits at the end of the garden. Debi would like a space she can relax in after a hard day's work, but the real dream would be transforming the plot into a family space for everyone to enjoy. Having stared out at their uninspiring plot for years, Debi and Des are desperate for a solution.Stepping up to help are award-winning garden designers Oliver Bond and Helen Elks-Smith. Oliver has got big ideas on how to identify and define new zones in the space, whilst Helen finds an unexpected sweet spot right in the heart of the plot. Using virtual reality, both designers pitch their radically different approaches. Either one would be a perfect fit, but which will the couple choose?

Agata and David live in Benfleet, Essex. They were initially attracted to their lovely new family home because of its massive garden. They thought it would be an ideal space for their autistic son Franik to enjoy being outside. However, they soon found that the size and awkward L-shape of the garden made it difficult to keep an eye on him. They are constantly concerned that Franik could hurt himself. The garden is now a source of stress for Agata and David instead of the haven of calm they hoped for. Now, with a new baby daughter, this family is more desperate than ever to transform this giant space into one that can be full of happiness and relaxation.

Rachael and Tom are both vegans and are passionate about the great outdoors and the power of nature. They have committed to transforming their first home in Manchester into somewhere which reflects a truly sustainable lifestyle. Using savings left to them by Tom's grandparents, the pair want to transform their outside space into a living larder. But the unruly plot is now a ramshackle tangle of dangerous hard landscaping and uneven levels. As the couple tie the knot in a few months, it's a huge year for them, and they are determined that they set the tone for their future together by getting this garden just right.

Lisa and Justin live in a new build house in Wokingham. Lisa is originally from South Africa, and the couple raised their two children there, returning to the UK a few years ago. They love their home, but the footprint downstairs isn't huge, and they are desperate to make more of the generous plot outside. Given their roots in South Africa, the family also want to connect more with nature. They regularly go for walks in the nearby woods, but they would love their garden to offer them a similarly ‘wild' experience, something their distinctly average patch of lawn doesn't. With Lisa recovering from a recent illness, the family desperately want their own private sanctuary outside, but they are at a loss about where to start.Stepping up to help are award-winning garden designers Oliver Bond and Steve Williams. Oliver is keen to divide up this boring plot into defined yet beautiful zones, while Steve is committed to getting some nature into the uninspiring space. Using virtual reality, both designers pitch their radically different approaches. Oliver creates a sophisticated paradise complete with bespoke lighting solutions, whereas Steve reinvents the plot into a wild wonderland. Both designs are brought to life in the virtual world, allowing Lisa and Justin to step inside two versions of the garden. Either would be a perfect fit, but which will the couple choose?
