only ever watch it on the BBC iplayer - but it is always excellent

Gardeners World last night was an hour and has a new producer - no veg and much more plants and flowers - long may it continue

Just MD donning his waders again plodding through his pond the size of Lake Garda; another bloke wondering about creating a border on a plot the size of the Wembley pitch and Carol putting the taxonomy of the Ranunculacea to rights in 25 seconds. Ho Hum!

Yes I know what you mean - but it is a step in the right direction - I was wondering if they were going to ditch MD IDC and move GW to the farm house the other Chelsea Gold Medal winner has bought?
At least it was not relentless veg for 1/2 hour - hour - used to put me to sleep on a Friday night........

I really like delphiniums so it was good to see a little article on them

David,
If you were stuck with what we have on TV here you'd look forward to GW!
Now that they are available on YouTube we are able to watch (when we get the time!)
cheers

I thought that too.  They seem to be lining up AFrost as a replacement, with a suitable
new house.  However I quite like him and with the Geoff Hamilton background it's going
full circle.
