Title: One to Watch
Post by: Blue Bird on February 19, 2007, 19:04:15

Notice that the TV programme - Heavens Garden is on Tuesday at 6.30 and the rest of the week on UKTV Gardens )if you have free view Sky etc..)

have seen a few of them and found them very informative and great for newbies like me  ;D  ;D  ;D

I watched the programme last night and again tonight and it's very informative for a newbie to gardening.

The only downside is the presenter, she's a little sober to say the least.

i must bsay i dont like the programme, there is a lot of wasted space on the plot they use and the presenter doesnt look the greatest gardener in the world, but good for 30 minutes vieweing.

Which Freeview channel is it on?

By the way, on UKTV Bright Ideas (FView 19) there are six garden shows in succession starting at (gulp!) 6.00am - thank goodness for the video!
They are:
How does your garden grow?
Turf Wars
Garden ER
Gardens Unplugged
Garden Highs; and
Water Gardens

Growth junkies beware!   ;D
