Gardeners World

Just a reminder Gardeners World starts new season next Friday, 6th March, no news on Beechgrove yet, I hope they repeat on Sundays again.

 

Great. Thanks for the heads up.

yes Beech Grove wipes the floor with GW

 

Thank you very much Pam

 

Thanks for the reminder

 

Thanks Pam

 

Was just wondering when this was going to start again

I have never heard of Beechgrove so will give that a go this year

 

Love Beechgrove seems to be less flashy and more on point

 

Its on BBC Scotland, not sure how others get it , I have freesat, others sky I suppose, but it`s always available on the iplayer.
Editing because just remembered it was screened nationwide last year, think it was with the Sunday repeat of Gardeners World only.

 

Thanks for the reminder.
I will Sky+ it this evening.

 

They were filming at Upton Country Park (Poole) last Friday, where I do my voluntary work and the used our greenhouse for a basket filling demo (so I was told) I presume it will be in the next series.

 

We just spent the afternoon with Monty,well with 200 others at our local theatre.
He was amazing,a complete showman,articulate, funny and informative as you would expect.
He talked at length about his life before and the making of Longmeadow from field to what it is now.
How he never expected to be upstaged by an animal(Nigel)who in fact was not with him apparently as his fee was far to high.

How he wanted to change the title 80 Gardens around the World,producers said no,if he did not agree they had Alan Titchmarshes phone number.

How his chickens were all killed by a fox last week,he may mention this on GW on Friday.

As you can imagine he can hold an audience of fans in the palm of his hand.......just what we needed on a cold winters afternoon.........

 

You lucky thing @roders ...I bet it was marvellousHe seems a smashing chap.I love the way he interacts with Nigel on GW you can tell they adore each other...What a shame about his chooks bet he was gutted...

I'm so looking forward to seeing them both back on screen

 

Tbh, I don't agree with or like a lot of what Monty does on GW.
But it is still quite interesting.

 

Fridays programme repeated Sunday 7-30 am, will record series on that one, in case I miss Friday.
