GARDEN Rescue’s Charlie Dimmock was left floored as a guest burst into tears after a “triggering transformation” on the BBC show.
The team visited a desolate garden in Newport.

Just three weeks before the pair was scheduled to get married, Angie was organising her wedding to future husband Mark.
But he ended up having a problem with his lungs.
Angie said with tears in her eyes: “Luckily he came out and he was ok, but then he was in and out of hospital and it turned out that he was riddled with cancer unfortunately, and there was nothing they could do.”
She explained that being in the garden was just too triggering for her as it just reminded her of her beloved late husband.
Angie said: “It’s the bit of the garden I just don’t enjoy anymore because it was Mark’s area of the garden, so I don’t really venture down here much.”
Angie gave Garden Rescue designers Charlie Dimmock and Lee Burkhill a £5,000 budget and asked them to construct a space with a Welsh theme that would allow her to unwind and think of Mark while yet leaving enough lawn for Stan the dog.
The team got to work and constructed a lovely garden complete with a lounging area, a place to relax, calming noises, and colourful vegetation.
Angie was thrilled with the whole transformation, and held back the tears.
She said: “Ohhhh, I don’t know what to say, oh my word, it’s like it’s a completely different place, it looks amazing.”
She added: “I will be down here in five minutes, there’s a bottle of Prosecco chilling in the fridge, and I will be down here with a glass toasting Mark and toasting my beautiful new garden. Now that it’s opened up I feel it’s a place I can really remember Mark but enjoy the space now, which I hadn’t done since he’s been gone, so it’s amazing, thank you.”
