Behind the scenes at the Christmas grotto at Highgrove's Coronation Pavilion, revealing not only what is visible to the public, but also the workings of the estate. Matt Baker, Margherita Taylor and Adam Henson meet staff from His Majesty's charity The King's Foundation, who manage Highgrove and transform it into a festive wonderland each Christmas, all while staying true to His Majesty's passion for nature and sustainability. Matt joins Highgrove's garden team to harvest The King's Brussels sprouts and meets students taking part in King's Foundation education programmes using British timber, and Adam joins a local farmer shepherding his Shropshire sheep onto the estate's wildflower meadow for grazing, while the Royal Chef prepares a delicious feast of turkey and Brussels sprouts
