I thought it odd too there was no coverage on tonight's programme. It's still billed as BBC Gardeners World Live (even if run by RHS) and is plugged in the magazine which of course is linked to the programme. Usually they have the plant swap etc. Very strange.

It is a tenous link though as regards the magazine and the programme
It would seem that the BBC has allowed its name to be linked to the show without any actual involvement-they could just be getting a fee for that.
we went on wednesday, and were very disappointed, the show had no buzz and seemed a lot smaller. where were the presenters ? we watch the tv program every week and would have liked to have seen at least one there...why no plant swap? and why no tv coverage, no mention on the tv about the show, sorry but we wont be going again.
The show is run by Haymarket, presumably contracted by the RHS. I understand they asked too much for TV coverage so there was none. Unfortunately, this has a knock on effect for sponsorship for gardens and plants people who have to balance the cost of exhibiting - fees, transport, personnel, materials, time - against likely sales and publicity generated by a show without TV coverage.

Visited Rhs Tatton Park on Satuarday..never again. Spent just over an hour there, so it turned out to be an incredibly expensive hour. Blink and you miss the TINY show gardens..that frankly where just bland. The show ground is just one big market stall for retailers. Absolutely dreadful.
