Clarington, i have the same problem, except his tipple is red wine!!!! Love the program, just dont like the time it comes on as I have to rush home from work and get dogs fed and walked by 7. Glad to see the stumperies, I had a go myself with a few gnarled pieces of wood and a few ferns in my wooded area, its very effective.
More Charlie D presenting please - ponds was great as was Stumperies. IMO.
As to presenters styles and 'enthusiasm' and heavy accentuating, I agree it lacks sincerity. BBC please note. But I do like CK & Charlie D's jollity. They do also genuienly know their stuff.
I've got an old tree which needs to be removed & I love ferns (how dare somebody say they're boring!!!!). As our garden was stripped last year and we are starting from scratch again I feel a stumpery coming on soon
It's not fair I WANT TO DO IT ALL from water garden to wilds seed garden to growing veg and every think in between.
not fair not fair
I'm loving this program, I bought some wild flower seeds that I'm going to sow along my grass verge in the spring also their is around about near me that is just a hedge and weeded soil (very low maintenance) that I'm sure would love some wild flowers throwing on it But I will have to wait until they weed it.
From all your positive comments, it just underlines for me the weakness of GW in it's 30miin format, covering 3 items, plus dogs, music et al. Completely dumbed down. There is plenty of room for gardening progs. with lots of pretty pictures, and experts eulogising over it all. What we need is down to earth, practical advice, with time taken to go into the details.
I see the lawn revival has prompted a new thread. It has stimulated us all and made us look at our plots - big or small - and given such ideas and some practical advice.
That in my opinion is what a garden programme should be - to educate, to stimulate, to provoke thought processes - to be about the best of gardening
An hour of this type of programme every week would promote a nation of gardeners
