GREEN-FINGERED residents are celebrating after appearing on the BBC's Beechgrove Garden.
Residents of Silverburn, in Midlothian, were filmed by the popular TV show as they created a community garden.

Kathleen Hill, who coordinated the Pentland Hills project, said: "They took the storyline right the way through, from collecting rocks in the quarry. It was so sensitively done."

A Beechgrove spokesman said: "The tiny Silverburn community of only 40 homes have already created minor miracles in their village as they raised the money for, then designed and built, their own community hall.

"The community now want to ice that cake by creating what will probably be the highest community garden there is, for both locals and visitors to enjoy."
