Beechgrove has been shown up here for at least 25 years....it used to be shown on a Saturday night right before Sportscene (our Match of the Day) and I used to hate it when I was a boy waiting for the footy to come on! Now my folks laugh when I tell them I dont miss it!!
Haha, i hear you there Brycey i was the same, mind you thats when fitba wiz fitba ah for the Archie Mcpherson and Arthur Montford days and wee Jimmy Sandison on the radio, now the box is set for series link on all the gardening programs couldn't even tell you a fitba commentators name..
I wonder if the Beechgrove will get a bigger budget and a makeover now it is going BBC wide? I hope it doesn't change too much if it does. It is the straightforward advice for people who live in ordinary houses with ordinary gardens that drew me to it on the I-Player. If I ignore the non-organic aspects it is far more helpful and relevant to me than much of GW, which seems to be aimed predominantly at people in the south of England with rather large gardens.
