I shall watch it, probably doze off and then watch the recording. There's usually at least one nugget of something interesting so it's worth it even when there's nothing I particularly like or will suit my garden or want to try here but at least I then know what not to bother with.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.
"The price good men (and women) pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men (and women)."
" Monty plants tender perennials, including salvias and gingers, in the Jewel Garden, brings his citrus plants out from their winter protection and plants primulas in his new bog garden.
As tulip season reaches its glorious peak, Rachel de Thame visits a dazzling display of this spring favourite at a garden in Gloucestershire, and Joe Swift checks out a pub garden with a difference in East Sussex.
We meet a gardener who loves to experiment on his allotment in Bristol and a GP in north London with a passion for growing citrus plants. There’s also another chance to see what Gardeners’ World viewers have been getting up to in their gardens "
Hmm..I think I'll give that a miss. Doc Martin is on ITV..I might watch that..
Can you imagine Doc Martin trying to get on with technology during lockdown. That would definitely be an episode worth watching
I always record and watch GW on playback so I can fast forward through the viewers gardens bits. I find them annoying, especially when you can tell the parents have forced their kids to do the bit to camera to increase the chances of it being broadcast. I generally just watch the bits with Monty in his garden. I could spend the full hour watching him in his garden.
GW is my favourite TV programme, but I probably end up fast forwarding through half of it.
I like GW, but didn't think much to last night's episode. The tulip lady was annoying and I'm not a huge fan of Rachel. I liked the Japanese fella though, interesting to see english gardens growing in Japan aswell as the other way round.
Ironically l enjoyed the tulips segment, but l wish they would identify all the tulips that were shown, just a quick caption on the screen would be fine. I was sitting watching saying "That's pretty" and "l like that" all ready to make a note of the name, but nothing doing. I'm sure the ex headmistress would know every variety.
The Japanese gentleman was very interesting , as @gjautos said, it was unusual to see an English style garden in Japan instead of the other way round. Beautiful English bluebells.
When Monty was mulching the pot of citrus fruit, all l could see was the lump of oxalis in the pot and wishing he'd pull it out 😊. That weed is one of the banes of my life.

I’ve emailed them asking for this a few times. Never got a response.
Surely it’s not expensive to have some text pop up next to the plants and flowers etc as they come on the screen.
They need only be on for a second or two and we can pause if we want to write it down.
