Garden Rescue viewers were less than impressed with a transformation that aired last night, with them describing the finished outdoor space as "looking like a building site."
The BBC programme sees homeowners enlist the help of gardening expert Charlie Dimmock as well as designers Harry and David Rich - who are known as the Rich Brothers.
They were seen pitching ideas to couple Karen and Colin, from Romsey, in an episode that aired last night - which had originally been broadcast during the Covid pandemic.
The couple described their garden as a "total mess," with them looking to instead have a "relaxing retreat" where Karen would be able to unwind after a stressful day in work.

It had been explained to the gardening professionals that her job was particularly "challenging" as she was a reverend in a hospital, which often involves end-of-life support.
The couple hoped for an "Italian feel," as they love Italy, with them wanting a space to entertain family and friends. They had a budget of £6,000 for the garden transformation.
After hearing pitches from Charlie and the Rich Brothers, the couple choose the former's vision for their garden, with the TV presenter changing the space completely.
This included creating a pergola, a water feature made out of terracotta and buying an olive tree, which cost £500. She also introduced boulders, which cost £540, to the garden.
Following the big reveal, Karen and Colin were impressed with the transformation that had taken place, with their new garden described as "wonderful" when they first saw it.
And although the couple were themselves pleased with their new outdoor space, viewers of the BBC programme however didn't seem to be as keen on the garden transformation.
Taking to social media towards the end of the episode, one viewer tweeted: "I like parts of it but it looks unfinished." This sentiment was shared by others on Twitter last night.
"I said exactly the same," wrote one viewer, whilst another responded: "I know for 6k I was expecting a lot more."

Another viewer tweeted: "This is the worst #gardenrescue I've seen." Whilst one viewer posted screaming emojis and commented last night: "£500 for the olive tree."
“This is the worst garden rescue I’ve seen,” one viewer kicked off, as a second agreed: “It looks like a building site."
One viewer wrote: "Anyone seen #gardenrescue? I'd be like f*** if I came home and [someone] had done that to my garden. And it only cost £6,000, I honestly can't believe it."
