  • Viewing figures for last two shows continue to decline - 1.78 and 1.77 million respectively.
  • I notice the comment about Monty needing to go on a gardening course has been removed!! Censorship of anti Monty comments shows a level of desperation by " the powers that be"
  • Watched Gardeners World for the first time in 3 months today. Much, much better than it was earlier in the year although I can't warm to Monty as lead presenter. Interesting that he used Toby's idea of green manure from last year!
  • So happy to see Monty's back on GW!! We stopped watching when Toby and Alys took over. Monty - and Carol as well - are such passionate people when it comes to gardening and nature in general. They really inspire us!

    greetings from Holland.
  • Monty is dreary Alys supercilious and silly, Toby just right Carol fun Rachel O.K
  • Well, I'm glad both Monty & Carol have room in their gardens for nursery beds.

    Of course the majority of people in this country have huge gardens with ample room, lime walks & jewel gardens & large veg plots, seperate herb gardens, plenty of box hedging, orchards, potting sheds,large greenhouses, etc, etc.

    So don't need any articles showing how to make the most of tiny gardens or balconies then.

    Silly me. There was me thinking it would be a good idea.

    Oops. I forgot, Toby was showing us that in the front gardens at Greenacre!
  • can anyone tell me the breed of Monty Don's dog Nigel?
  • I think Nigel may be a golden retriever. Not 100% sure, though.

    I think he's lovely- he's the best thing on GW these days.
  • Ron Freer's viewing figures for Gardeners' World are wrong!
    You can check out the OFFICIAL FIGURES yourself at www.barb.co.uk. These are produced by BARB - the Broadcasters Audience Research Board.

    Viewing for both Friday 12th August and Friday19th August were both 1.98 million.

    Figures since then have been even higher at 2.12 million for August 26th and 2.22 million for September 9th.

    Well done Gardeners' World!
  • Is Monty still inviting feedback on growing grafted tomatoes? If so, happy to oblige.
