The first of a new series of challenges in which Anneka Rice sets out to "make the impossible possible" with the aid of enthusiastic and energetic volunteers. This week she needs the assistance of an international building company, to create an indoor riding school for the disabled and disadvantaged children who belong to the Wormwood Scrubs Pony Centre - with only three days to complete a task normally taking three months! Joining the team for this new series is Pedro, a lively terrier who turns up with sound man Dave Chapman and stays.
The town of Burnham-on-Sea has a Marine Rescue boat on standby, but because there is no boat house on the shore the boat is stored miles inland in the Somerset countryside. Anneka's challenge is to build a new lifeboat station, but she only has 72 hours to complete the job. Will she sail through the task before her or be left high and dry?
Anneka is in Swansea with Pedro the dog and they have to stage a concert in the new arts centre. But before they can begin to think about putting on a production, they have to rebuild the theatre.
This episode's task is to convert two fishing boats into play spaces. To achieve her goal Anneka has to find one of the largest cranes in the country, hampered by fog and a fire on board.
Anneka attempts to publish a cookery book within 48 hours, and become a master chef for a celebrity lunch to launch the book. But before she can put the book together she has to gather 100 celebrity recipes and have them tested.
Anneka has to get Britain's newest TV channel, YCTV - Youth Cable Television - on air. It's the first studio to be created as part of a nationwide initiative to keep inner-city children off the streets and allow them to make TV rather than just watching it.
In one of her toughest and most dangerous challenges, Anneka undertakes to move an entire hospital casualty unit from Dunfermline in Scotland and rebuild it 1,830 miles away in a remote town in central Romania. If she succeeds, the unit will become the first accident and emergency unit in a country where thousands die each year through lack of medical facilities, and she has just 11 days in which to complete the task.
