    Well exactly. Unless they've done a robust piece of research (god help us) there's no right answer is there? Stating it all the time just sounds a bit desperate, and I don't think Monty (or Alan for that matter) need to act desperate!

    I do like a pedant.

    I think pedantry is essential when it comes to facile and highly misleading errors such as the square metres thing.   I also dispute her assertions about the nation's favourite gardener?  Which nation exactly?  In Scotland I bet it's Jim from Beechgrove.   In   England I doubt very much if it's MD and then there's Wales and NI.  

    Not that it matters.  We just want a competent presenter for a well produced and directed show.    Except for the voice over, this show delivers but not GW.

    Well, if we can have two dogs why not cats and the chickens too?  They all like the garden too.
