Cant stand Toby he is boring to watch and it is obvious that Joe and Carol and Alys don't gel with him and are always at the allotment or in Devon! Don't blame them, he is patronising and has not inspired me to rush out to try any of his suggestions....BORING.....Chris Beardshaw, Christine Walkden or Carol should definately have got the job. Get rid of him!
carol is the only one that as not been with toby joe as alys as socome on carol lets see you with toby to stop all the gosip and lets get on with the thing we all like and thats garding good gardening toby
Well, I've given Toby a chance over the last few weeks but can honestly say that his 'style' does nothing for me. Very boring. Gardeners World used to be the start of my weekend but unfortunately I've stopped watching. Liked Alys with Monty but she never got credit on the roll up. Think Alys should be head gardener, she's got a nice way and is very individual!
Thank goodness that we have Toby Buckland as the new presenter, much better than Monty Don, down to earth and I really liked the way he visited Barnsdale and linked back to the late Geoff Hamilton. Thank you BBC I will once again enjoy watching GW on Friday evenings.
I do not enjoy watching gardeners world anymore. Don't really like toby buckland. I think someone with more love of gardening would of been better. Chris beardshaw or Carol Klien. Least Monty was passoniate about the plants. Toby comes across as thrifty
Monty made Gardener's World my favourite programme and I have become passionate about gardening thanks to watching him and Carol. I always learnt something from their programmes. The new look version is just awful and more like watching childrens tv. I have given up watching the one program I used to really look forward to. Shame on the BBC!
Sorry but Gardeners World has lost its way by passing over Carol, but then I am biased having had the pleasure of making a program with her ( Open Gardens )I can assure the critics her enthusiasm knowledge and good Humour are 100%genuine she should have got the job.
yes i still miss carol and her enthusiasm have just read in the paper that the programme has now been taken off what a great start to the gardening year they don't know what they are doing
I have to say that the recent series of Gardeners world are the most disappointing. What has happened to practical gardening. Each week we are presented with "Hairy Fairy" ideas that can only appeal to a small minority of viewers. Watching so called experts indulge themselves in personal projects is not Gardeners World as I knew and loved. The projects do not transfer to the everyday gardener and his garden. What happened to the teaching and sharing of real gardening. I can learn what is currently being shown from any good garden book. A very switched of gardener. Bring back Monty Don!
i have nothing aganst toby but the program is boring to what it was i think the mag is better than the program at the moment or go on the gardening chanel on the tv and look at the old ones what do you think
