W
E all think we
know how the
inside of our
homes should look,
but most of us have
absolutely no idea
what to do outside.
This new series gives
home-owners the
opportunity to see
their outside spaces
transformed into
wonderlands, before
they are created in real
life.
Using the latest
visual technologies,
radically different
designs are showcased
digitally. As well
as big budgets and
mega plots, there are
also clever low-cost
reinventions of small
spaces too, packed
with tips and tricks to
inspire people at home
to get stuck in.
Following on from the
wildly successful and
innovative series Your
Home Made Perfect,
Angela Scanlon is
back with this brand
new series that uses
the same remarkable
technology to reinvent
garden spaces into a
true extension of our
homes.

Perfect has ideas and
insights for everyone,
whether greenngered geniuses
or those wondering
where to put their
rst houseplant,
we will reveal how
surrounding ourselves
with nature can be
profound on any scale.
AS this century hits
its 21st birthday,
Stephen Fry takes
viewers through his
pick of the fascinating
and ground-breaking
things that have
happened for the
first time since the
year 2000.On this nostalgic journey he
explores a century that has seen huge
technological advances and a social
media revolution that has affected all
our lives.
He also examines the most significant
cultural and political firsts that have
shaped our world over the last 20 years.
Through interviews with experts
and well-known faces, as well as
ordinary people involved in some of
the breakthroughs, the programme
highlights some of the great
advancements we’ve seen for the first
time in the 21st century.

ON THE RADIO: Mary
Portas: On Style, BBC
Radio 4, Tuesday,
11.30am
MARY Portas explores
style with substance,
democratic design and
fashion that is fun, but
not frivolous, in her new
series on what style
means to us and the way
we live today.
In the first episode of the series
we are in search of joy and colour,
celebrating style that brings us closer
to people.
Mary is joined by fragrance specialist
Lizzie Ostrom, aka ‘Odette Toilette’, to
discuss invisible style: perfume. Scent
is intrinsically linked to memory, and
we examine the way it has brought us
closer to the people and places we’ve
missed in lockdown.
We also look at how the perfume
market fared during the past 12
months, and get some tips from Lizzie
on choosing a signature scent online.
