I watched yesterday's programme and found the content interesting as I was looking for some inspiration for dealing with a flower bed.
however, can someone please let me know the process for choosing the recipients of a garden makeover as surely there must be more deserving folk rather than a single mum of FIVE!!
so for that choice of recipient I AM OUT from watching this programme again!

Rather rude.....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Tumbleweed moment after that last comment ........
I gave up with the program after the second episode and won't watch it again, good effort but it isn't my cup of tea. As for Foxgloves I've grown up with them and never had the urge to eat them. As long as kids are supervised and taught what they can and can't eat I don't see the problem.
I don't care who they do the gardens for, I would just prefer them to do it for people who are interested in gardening but perhaps don't know how or where to start. If they have no interest is a new garden going to give them an interest? perhaps?
mmm, perhaps I'm taking it all a little too seriously

Not everyone has endless time, money or energy to spend in a garden. It doesn't mean they shouldn't have one to enjoy. Most of us don't have Roman Abramovich's bank balance either so you could argue that it's pointless watching Chelsea, Hampton Court etc to get ideas for a garden. It's a harmless half hour show and if it encourages a few people to get outside and enjoy the space they have, with limited funds to get going, I don't think that's too bad an idea.
NGCards is right - No one's forced at gunpoint to watch, so use the off switch if you don't care for it. I use it every time I see Carol Klein.
And we all had to start somewhere.

Wasn't having a go at you Jo - I was supporting what you said re parents informing their children about how to behave in a garden
and adding my tuppenceworth
Horses for courses with all these programmes I think

I enjoyed it, apart from the presenter who has all of the charisma of warts in a personal region!
Well there's Verdun of course, but I'm his best friend Jo.....
