Maddie Moate from CBeebies and Helen Bostock from the RHS join Zoe to talk about BBC Radio 2's Big Bee Challenge and the competition to design a bee friendly garden.

Maddie Moate, the CBeebies presenter and competition judge, chats to Zoe about BBC Radio 2's Big Bee Challenge. It's the final day for children to enter the competition and Maddie explains what she'll be looking out for as a judge. Maddie is a BAFTA-winning presenter and YouTuber, who brands herself as one of the few female 'Edu-tubers' in the UK, posting educational content across science and technology channels. She is the host of the BAFTA-nominated CBeebies TV series ‘Maddie's Do You Know?’, BBC Earth's ‘Earth Unplugged’ and Fully Charged's YouTube series 'Maddie Goes Electric'. 

Helen Bostock from the Royal Horticultural Society chats to Zoe about building the competition winner's garden and what it's going to take to deliver it on time. Helen is a Senior Horticultural Advisor, working with the Plant Health and Gardening Advice teams maintaining more than 1,000 online advice profiles, answering members’ gardening questions and conducting research into garden biodiversity. 

Plus Zoe plays three disco classics from her personal collection in the Disco Ball at 8.30!

Along with Clare Runacres on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, she and the team have the best start to your morning. With celeb guests,  headlines, tunes chosen by listeners, and more music that you can shake a glitterball at!
