What has Natasia said about The Big Flower Fight?

Speaking to BT.com, Natasia said: "There’s obviously a lot of these competition format shows being made at the moment, and I really liked the fact that it was that sort of show - being creative and stuff - on such a giant scale.

"It’s a bit surreal. The stuff they make is kind of mad and weird, which I liked.

"Then when they told me that Vic [Reeves] was going to be presenting it, I was like ‘Yes, please! That will be so much fun'."

Natasia's co-host Vic Reeves said that of the show: 'It’s not Gardeners’ World. It’s punk rock gardening...a lot of the people here could be in bands. It looks like a documentary about some rock and rollers instead of gardeners. It’s really good.'

In each episode, the 10 pairs taking part are given a different theme by which to make their creation. These include Sea Creatures', 'Green Giants', and 'Fabulous Floral Fashion'.

The creations are then judged, and one pair is eliminated in each episode.
