Great British Bake Off: plant hope and bake goodness

Mel describes herself as a "level one" baker, comfortable with brownies but "scared of bread". "It's the yeast. You live in the presence of something that's alive." Sue, on the other hand is "a natural". "For a lot of this series Sue has been in the home-economics kitchen, the nexus of the production. She made a very good batch of scones. And traybakes for the grand final party."

After months of filming and before taking a break for the summer, Mel has another commitment that is close to her heart. Next Sunday she will be appearing at Horatio's Garden Food and Plant Fair at the Duke of Cornwall Spinal Treatment Centre at Salisbury Hospital.

"My link is very personal. A good friend at film school called Giles had an accident in Australia and ended up in the unit. We used to visit him and I got to know the staff and saw and I hate using this word but I'm going to 'the journey' he made. He's tetraplegic. But 20 years on he's married, with two lovely dogs."

Horatio's Garden has become a national charity, building therapy gardens at spinal centres in the UK. It is named after Horatio Chapple, who volunteered as a schoolboy with ambitions to go into medicine, his father being a consultant surgeon at the hospital. Horatio was killed by a polar bear while on a British Schools Exploring Society expedition to Norway in 2011, at the age of 17.

Horatio's legacy is the most beautiful garden, designed by the Chelsea gold medallist Cleve West. For bed-bound hospital patients, to be taken into a garden, says Mel, is "an important part of recovery, a godsend". Her friend Giles was outdoorsy and to see him being stuck inside in a bed was agony.

In terms of rehabilitation and therapeutic qualities, baking and gardening have a lot in common, Mel says. She supports the efforts of last year's Bake-Off finalist Brendan Lynch to take baking courses into care homes. Mel will next month open the Restore charity's Littlemore caf in Oxford, a venture for which mental health patients are encouraged to bake and learn catering skills to take into paid jobs.

Next Sunday, Horatio's Garden will host artisan food producers, with plants for sale, gifts and crafts. There will be traditional ciders from Bridge Farm, salt marsh lamb from the Thoroughly Wild Meat Co, and sushi from Dorset Sushi.

Mel is no stranger to farmers' markets. "My husband is a devotee of the West Ealing farmers' market. We became obsessed with the tomato guy my daughters thought he looked like Troy from High School Musical and would spend 20 on tomatoes." She's used the tomatoes in attempts to make pizza (a gentle introduction to yeast). "I'm on top of that," she says. Is it a Paul Hollywood recipe? "No," she adds, dropping her voice to a whisper, "it's a Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall."

Horatio's Garden's Food and Plant Fair takes place at Salisbury District Hospital, SP2 8BJ on Sunday 23 June, from 11am-3pm: Horatio's Garden; email info@horatiosgarden.org.uk or call 07429 140918. Entry is free.

Mel Giedroyc will be opening the Restore cafe, at Littlemore Mental Health Centre, Oxford on 26 July (Restore).

PMQs sketch: Policy-altering substances? Just say no

The Prime Minister laughed when he said this, as if it were some kind of hilarious satirical joke. Such levity seemed insensitive, however, because, as concerned parents could tell him, policy-altering substances are a serious issue. Fashionable among revellers at nightclubs across the Spanish holiday islands, policy-altering substances are considered by experts to pose a grave threat to users health.

I was at Gatecrasher in Ibiza when this geezer sold me this funny red pill, confesses one teenage raver, who asked to remain anonymous. He said, This little babyll shake up your manifesto! I swallowed it, and half an hour later I was in the bogs, throwing up everywhere and completely rowing back on my commitment to build 400,000 affordable homes by 2015.

Mr Miliband, meanwhile, reported some alarming news about the NHS.

Mr Speaker, he declared, there are people all over this country waiting for hours and hours in A&E, and all they see is a complacent, out-of-touch Prime Minister reading out a list of statistics!

What a troubling thought. Personally I havent been to A&E in a while, so I had no idea such a thing went on.

Excuse me, nurse. Whos that man with the big shiny face standing at the front of the waiting room?

Thats the Prime Minister, Mrs Jones.

I see. I thought I recognised him. Whats he doing?

Hes reading out a list of statistics, Mrs Jones.

Reading out a list of statistics. I see. I must say, hes doing it in a very complacent and out-of-touch way. To be frank with you, I didnt come to A&E to see him. I came to see a doctor. Ive broken my hip, you see. Do you think I could see a doctor? Ive been waiting for hours and hours.

Chica with a chuckling charm

Her melliflous voice, infectious laughter and dazzling personality lightens a dreary afternoon instantly. Michelle Patrao, one of the citys leading jocks, has been engaging Bengalurus listeners for almost four years now and feels wielding a microphone was her destiny.

A totally musical request Born and brought up in Mangalore, Michelles frequent summer holidays to Bengaluru to visit her grandparents familiarised her with the wonders of the broadcast medium. My grandfather would seat me on his lap and say, I want to see you on television! so that kind of got stuck in my head, reveals the pretty RJ.

She recalls how it was so hard to consider media as a field of study since opportunities were so few and far between. After working in Dubai for two years, she landed an interview with a radio station and says, I owe my career to that producer, who told me my laughter is broadcast-worthy!

It was DJ Ivan who informed her about an RJ hunt in the city and she immediately auditioned for Indigo 91.9. Michelle joins the ranks of radio jockeys like Priya Ganapathy, Johnsie, Vasanthi Hariprakash, Rohit Barker and Darius Sunawala, who have become celebrities after their stints on radio. She has represented the country twice at an international convention for RJs, at Ireland and recently won RJ of the Year South at the Golden Mikes. People think I anchor a show for four hours and must be in a cushy job, but I am at the studio for nine hours, preparing for shows, writing scripts and doing justice to tons of other responsibilities, explains Michelle, Its an amazing job, I get to talk to so many people and I must admit, there are some crazy people I encounter as well.

Dance, dance, baby! Leave her on a dance floor and its her own little party all the way! I cannot and will not give up dancing for anything! The one condition I have for a potential groom is that he must dance, she asserts firmly. With an undying love for travel, she says how a vacation to Ibiza was probably the best she has had so far. One of the wishes on my bucket list was to see Ibiza and party in some of the best nightclubs in the world, before I turned 30 and Im thrilled I could do it. Someone who would lay her life down for her family, Michelle feels there is a side to her a lot of people dont know. My parents, two brothers and grandmother mean the world to me. I dont get people who claim they are who they are because of themselves. I owe my life and success to my family.

Spiritual quotient At a time when its almost fashionable to denounce religious beliefs and embrace agnostic paths, this 31-year-old firmly swears by her faith. I am a religious person. I read the Bible every day, and pray often. I feel it grounds me and gives me the strength to take each day as it comes.

John Woodhouse restaurant review: The Red House in Caverswall

THE First Noel was playing while we enjoyed Sunday dinner at the Red House. I'd be quite happy to kill a few hours in there, but seven months?

The musical accompaniment was nothing if not original. Over the course of an hour it varied from festive favourites to Morrissey and the kind of thing you might hear in the nightclubs of Ibiza.

The latter was somewhat testing. If they hadn't been so magnificent, I'd have shoved two home-cooked chips in my ears.

As far as I could ascertain, though, no-one else was bothered by this multi-genre mix tape.
