About
The premise of this long-running makeover show was "celebrating people by doing their gardens". In this very first episode, the Mucking In team rally together with Māngere Bridge locals to surprise unsung teacher Phillipa Todd, who goes the extra distance for her students. Co-presenter Jim Mora humbly describes their efforts as "more of a tidy-up than anything else", but the show would prove enduringly popular and run until 2009, and picking up a 2004 Qantas Media Award for Best Lifestyle Programme along the way.
