Will Douglas Win?

The Isle of Man will find out this week how Douglas fared in the Britain in Bloom competition.

A team of judges came for a tour of the Islands capital in August.

The best it has done before in the national contest was silver, and this year all efforts were made to help the Isle of Man go for gold.

Graham Newsom from the Douglas Corporation Parks Department was heavily involved in making sure Douglas was looking at it's best and he is hoping for top results. (audio above)

The RHS Britain in Bloom 2010 awards ceremony will take place in Birmingham on Wednesday.
