Gardening magazine. In this programme, Jim is in the greenhouse checking on his tomatoes while Carole is in the polytunnel keeping an eye on her spaghetti squash and sweetcorn.

In the Beechgrove Garden, the greenhouses and the polytunnels are pregnant with produce to come.

Jim is minding his tomatoes while Carole in the polytunnel is dealing with her spaghetti squash and noticing hopeful tassels on the sweetcorn.

Carole makes the first of two forays away up north to Orkney. She visits Caroline Critchlow's garden, which is a historic walled garden a stone's throw from the sea and completely restored in 2008.

The garden is planted to withstand winds in excess of 100mph and the planting reflects its coastal location and is done in cottage style with towering alliums, many varieties of geranium and plants collected from around Europe.
