The Wirral
Alan Titchmarsh and his team are in the Wirral to create a jungle inspired outdoor space for Conrad and Pauline Toohey, who have dedicated their lives to helping others, including severely disabled son Keiron. Their garden is so overgrown some of the family have not used it for decades, so Alan and the team transform the garden into a tranquil retreat with a pond to attract wildlife, and covered pergola surrounded by tropical planting. Meanwhile, Frances Tophill is in Cornwall to visit the UK's only outdoor jungle at the Lost Gardens of Heligan, where she helps head gardener Cindy plant some pond lilies.
Sudbury
Alan Titchmarsh and his team head to Suffolk to transform a garden for charity worker Eileen, who is desperate for a peaceful outdoor space to spend time with her husband Roy, who suffers from Parkinson's. Alan designs an inward-looking intimate area surrounded by beautiful year round colour for Roy and Eileen to enjoy, while Katie Rushworth takes inspiration from their love of pinks and blues to plant a wrap-around border.
Sheffield
Alan Titchmarsh and the team are in Sheffield to create a stunning family garden for Seema and Nawras, who both work shifts for the NHS while also giving 24 hour care to their severely disabled daughter Nour, and two other children. Their neglected outdoor space is more assault course than peaceful sanctuary, so the team create a truly accessible and stimulating space for the whole family to enjoy, with entertaining spaces and lush fragrant planting.

Actors Dean Cain, Ellen Cleghorne, Jaleel White and Barry Williams join reality stars Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Chris Soules and Kendra Wilkinson in boot camp. The winning star gets $50,000 for charity and bragging rights for his or her mentor. Not all of the celebrities will make the cut, however; after an opening potluck dinner each mentor selects three recruits to be on her team, leaving one celebrity to be sent home before the competition really begins. Burrell is looking to extend her record to 5-2, while Ray looks to get the win in her first season.

When popular cooking competition show Kitchen Clash comes to town, this could be the recipe for ending this feud once and for all. But things are fixing to heat up both inside and outside of the kitchen as the reality show spotlight causes sparks to fly as secrets are spilled and feathers get ruffled.
