    The Big Idea

    The Big Idea is a gameshow that aired on Sky One in 2006. Hosted by Richard Bacon, the show aimed to find the country’s best new business idea, with the public voting for the winner who would receive £100,000 to invest in their concept. Regional heats took place in Manchester and London, then in every episode three mentors introduced two of the products they backed from the regionals. Scrapheap Challenge’s Dick Strawbridge would then apply some quirky product testing.

    It’s Not Easy Being Green

    It’s Not Easy Being Green is a television series on BBC Two starring Dick Strawbridge and focusing on how to live an environmentally friendly, low impact life. To date there have been three series.

    Series one followed former Lieutenant-Colonel Dick Strawbridge, his wife Brigit, son James, and daughter Charlotte as they moved into Newhouse Farm, a 400-year-old listed building in Cornwall, England from Malvern, Worcestershire. The series documented the family’s attempts to convert the building and garden into a comfortable yet entirely ecologically friendly place to live. The show was perhaps unique in that the family did not want great sacrifices in achieving their goal, and Dick Strawbridge said “I don’t want to wear a hemp shirt and hairy knickers, I want a 21st-century lifestyle with a coffee machine”.

    In the first series they received advice from permaculture expert Patrick Whitefield and green auditor Donnachadh McCarthy. They were also helped by friends Jim Milner and Anda Phillips as well as at points a small army of friends and relatives. A book entitled ‘It’s Not Easy Being Green: One Family’s Journey Towards Eco-Friendly Living’ ISBN 0-563-49346-1 by Dick Strawbridge was released to accompany the series and is still available to buy.
