    Here's an extract from the Amateur Gardening Magazine reminding us that Beech Grove program will be back soon.

    "Popular Scottish gardening series "The Beechgrove Garden" is back - with tips for novice gardeners and growers who have to manage on small plots. And Gardeners South of the border will be able to tune in too - with a BBC 2 repeat confirmed for Sunday mornings this Season.
    In a new feature, presenter Chris Beardshaw comes to the rescue of a family with a new build house - while Carole Baxter will help gardeners with old, neglected plots to fall back in love with their gardens.
    George Anderson will offer gardeners inspiration on how to be productive with just one square metre of growing space, while Scottish TV favourite Jim McColl returns with expert allotment advice and tips.

    Summer Road Shows will take place across the Highlands. Beechgrove returns to BBC 2 Scotland on Thursdays at 7.30pm, starting on 2 April, and a nation wide repeat on BBC 2 on Sunday mornings gets underway on 5 April."

                    The best gardening show by far. Gardeners World needs to get rid of Monty Don before I watch it again.

                        best to catch it Sunday morning

                        I used to watch it through sky as it picks up BB2 Scotland, but thats all changed now, I think thats why they included Chris B as a new presenter as he is English and all the rest of the presenters are Scottish, its strange how the producers think

                          I wish there were as many hours of gardening shows as there are cooking shows then i could find something I could actually watch.

                            I agree that Beechgrove beats Gardeners' World hands down.
