    I'm with @borgadr :D 

    I guess you are all more seasoned viewers than I am and I am less critical about the show. Yes, the repeat of the house boat was dull and duly fast-forwarded, but overall I rather enjoyed the viewers' videos last year. Some certainly looked like they hoped to become the latest GW presenter ;) but they were all rather sweet with their good intentions and ideas, hacks and tricks.

    For sure, considering how busy I've been in my garden since last month, I'd be very happy to see more of the "how to" and "what to do now". But then, for long time followers, can they stomach another this-is-how-to-sow-sweet-peas tutorial? It's a fine balance the producers must strike between inspirational content, catering to all the new gardeners resulting from the lockdown, and satisfying more experienced gardeners.

    Re. Adam Frost's new design in his garden, I think they're going to string that one along over a few episodes - or that's what I'm hoping for. I was disappointed last year that we didn't see more of the progress of Nick Bailey's own garden transformation, just 2 short features and that was it.

    Yes the boat and the jungle sections were ff over.
     Was very envious of the house plants, but who has the time to look after that many!

    I can see why you think she's easy on the eye @punkdoc but certainly not worth repeating that video.
