English Country Garden 8.30pm BBC2
The garden that Rosemary Verey designed for Elton John at Woodside in Berkshire was inspired by one of England's most famous designs - Vita Sackville-West's white garden at Sissinghurst. It's the first thing guests see when they step out of the drawing room on to a large lawn surrounded by four white flower beds. Strolling further into the garden, they'll find the more intimate: the scented garden and a few typical Elton touches: a giant dinosaur, a statue of Aphrodite in a phone box. Verey also visits Lord Carrington at the Manor House in Buckinghamshire, and shares secrets of imaginative planting at home at Barnsley House.
The celebrity quiz show hosted by Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer, with team captains Ulrika Jonsson and Mark Lamarr, and Matt Lucas as George Dawes. Tonight's guest panellists are comedian Jo Brand, chef Gary Rhodes, astrologer Russell Grant and television presenter Carol Smillie.
