i enjoyed watching it today

 

I'll be looking out for it,
thanks,
Jenny

 

I've been watching it, I need more gardening TV. More more! My favourite programme at the moment is Carol Klein's cottage gardening diary, it feels more advanced and interesting, I really love it so far.

I have been watching but been struggling to watch it because she is sooooo full of energy snd soooo enthusiastic

I dont know if its because i have been sicker than normal and im always fatigued so energetic people can be draining or im just miserable lol

I do like monty don cause hes relaxing

 

I don't think it helps her that they keep repeating the same clips each time. "I can't wait to get down there". I really like the show though. Just wish they had actually done more with the 'from above' element. Eg highlighting terrain and trees etc that help form the structure and microclimates of each garden. Really it's about 5 mins in the air and then 40 mins of in amongst the plants.

Agreed Jack, Christine is good fun but the repeated bits are a bit grating! I do prefer the Carol Klein show, wouldn't have known unless you mentioned it so thank you for that!

 

Yes great programme and much of it filmed from a drone.
As a drone owner myself, I took some aerial photos of our garden during various stages of the season and the photos are spectacular.
Was thinking of going one stage further and getting a license so that I can earn some pennies from that sort of filming.
