Episode 2
Adam Frost and the team celebrate the joy that the gardening year brings with a selection of brand new stories.
Nick Bailey visits the winter garden at Sir Harold Hillier Gardens in Hampshire; Frances Tophill discovers the largest cultivated collection of Mediterranean plants in the great glasshouse at the National Botanic Garden of Wales; and Carol Klein immerses herself in the exuberance of high summer at Kelmarsh Hall Gardens in Northamptonshire.
Meanwhile, Arit Anderson meets a couple in the Pennines who have created a garden on the most challenging of plots, and Rachel de Thame shines a light on a plant that dazzles in the depths of winter – witch hazel.
We visit an artist in County Wicklow, Ireland, who curates his garden like a living canvas, and we meet a passionate gardener in Wiltshire who has taken her love of tulips to a whole new level.
There is also a chance to see what viewers have been getting up to in their own gardens.

The Twelve
Twelve citizens are called for jury duty on a high-profile murder trial as traumatizing as it is controversial, in which a woman stands accused of killing her sister's child.
As time goes by, the murder trial becomes a trial, not only for the accused, but for the jury members themselves.
Behind the façade of their anonymity, these twelve ordinary people bring with them their own histories. Lives that are as complex as the trial, full of fractured dreams, shameful secrets, hope, fears, personal trauma and prejudice.
Atomic
Atomic is a dynamic and entertaining action-fuelled adventure. When Max and Mohammed, two unlikely friends – and even less likely heroes – become swept up in a cartel's plot to transport uranium across North Africa, they face a monumental decision: save themselves or risk everything to prevent a nuclear bombgetting into the wrong hands.
Amandaland
Following three series of the Merman-produced, BAFTA award-winning series Motherland, a brand-new spin-off, Amandaland, is coming to the BBC, focused on Amanda.
Post her divorce, Amanda has had to downsize and up sticks to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it SoHa (definitely not the area around Wormwood Scrubs prison).
With both Manus and Georgie now at secondary school, Amanda has to try and get her head around raising teenagers, dealing with modern motherhood horrors like teenage drinking, fake Instagram accounts and eco anxiety. Not even a woman as certain of her parenting as Amanda can deal with these nightmares alone.
Then there's Amanda's mother Felicity who is constantly around, and completely in denial that she is, in fact, lonely. Theirs is a slightly unhealthy co-dependent relationship based on backhanded compliments and veiled snipes about her new home.
After a brief spell of freedom, Anne is sucked back into being Amanda's minion to help her navigate the social scene with the other parents at the children's new school. Thank God for Anne.
