Sport Relief: free garden
Would you like a brand new garden absolutely free?

All you have to do is take part in an exciting new project for Sport Relief that will last a day.

Your existing garden must be quite large and have decent access for large vehicles.

For further information, please contact Alex Renton.

Huh? I don't follow, maybe its because I'm american.

Oh Dear god! - there going to do a "How Hard can it be" on someone's garden. However, it can't be any worse than my current garden images/smilies/think.gif

For the non-brits: Sport Relief is a charity event using sport to raise money for lots of causes, what I think they'll be doing is a version of an old (and terrible) show called Ground Force In which they'd make over someone's crap garden.

Sounds like they want to create a dirt track in someones back yard!

Cobol74 · February 9th, 2008, 1:35 AM

Well, it will NOT be a pretty garden will it?

epp_b · February 9th, 2008, 2:50 AM

I'm still confused as to what redoing a garden has to do with "Sport Relief". I'm I to believe that gardening is considered a sport in the UK? Or is the whole "garden" thing a big joke as a sort of stage to play with off-road toys?

jebjeb · February 9th, 2008, 3:28 AM

Maybe you will get a miura like they talked about on the lambo ep images/smilies/smile.gif

I did ask that, I thought when TG was going to do sport relief some form of motorsport would be involved, not gardening.

As its top gear i can see motorsport coming into this at some point, somebody is possibly getting a race track in their gardens, whether its intentional or not images/smilies/lol.gif

they could have done a better job of editing that darn photo too, but I am looking forward to seeing this when it airs

This is BullS***! Sports professionals make plenty of money.

robybobey · February 10th, 2008, 3:27 PM

I've emailed for more information lol images/smilies/tongue.gif

Buktu · February 11th, 2008, 1:17 AM

I think it sounds hilarious, and i can't wait to see it! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I feel sorry for the people who are supplying the garden.. images/smilies/tongue.gif

Walsh_e · February 11th, 2008, 2:17 PM

Doesn't sound promising but I'm sure the lads will be able to pull it off.

I was hoping that they would do something with Fifth Gear, something similar to the Stars in Fast Cars they did a few years back. Have them go against each other with Quentin Wilson and Top Gear Dog as the hosts images/smilies/tongue.gif

If only it was reality.

Sport Relief is a biennial charity event from Comic Relief, in association with BBC Sport, which brings together the worlds of sport and entertainment to raise money to help vulnerable people in both the UK and the world's poorest countries. At the heart of the campaign is the Sport Relief Mile.

Thanks.

I still don't get what it has to do with a garden though.
