Royal Gardens

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Last programme in the series. The present Queen inherited 200 acres of royal gardens in 1952. Their story in her reign has been mostly one of survival, with little opportunity for creativity. Prince Charles, however, has not been subjected to such pressure, and has been able to create a stunning new country-house garden at Highgrove, his home in Gloucestershire. The Prince delights in showing the varied garden he has created over the past ten years, which must be one of the most important gardens laid out in the 1980s in this country. Written and presented by Sir Roy Strong. Director Roger Last
Producer JoanieBlaikie
An Antelope production for BBCtv
