A SEARCH has been launched to find Britain’s most passionate inventors, makers and engineers for a new BBC Two series.

Producers are looking to find willing contestants for Britain’s Most Spectacular Backyard.

Filming for the series will take place between January and March and those who take part will only be required for between one to four days. 

A spokesman said: "Up and down the country, extraordinary things are being made, from back garden rollercoasters to homemade helicopters.

"They are built with passion and created with purpose and now BBC Two are delving into their world to document the most passionate and most magnificent makers in the UK.

"This is a celebration of engineering, invention and innovation and this is a great opportunity for hobbyist inventors, engineers and makers across the country to take part in something magnificent."

Those interested in taking part can email the team on makers@rdftelevision.com or visit the BBC website to download an application form.
