The cameras are back for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at one of the UK's top tourist attractions. Watch as the gardens prepare for a royal visit from the Queen. The team are busy forcing a number of their most exotic plants to be at their most fabulous in time for Her Majesty's visit, but this cutting edge horticulture is complex and challenging with no guarantee of success. Kew is entering a new phase of big new projects - all of them expensive and ambitious in scale, from the development of the new children's zone to Kew's own training of customs officers to track down the illegal trade in endangered and hazardous plants being smuggled into the UK. Episode 4: Documentary on the work of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew.
