Despite Christine's best efforts, her plants are wilting under the summer sun. But never one to shirk a challenge, she takes on a 60ft long and 12ft high overgrown hedge armed only with secateurs.
It's June, and there's a hosepipe ban in place. But Christine is determined not to let her plants die. She digs over her beds and prepares the garden for summer, while also finding time to head north.
