25 years ago I lived next door to the Beechgrove Garden in Aberdeen.  Jim and George presented it then.  I can't tell if it's stilll being filmed from the same place.

Couldn't find anything there but got it on Wikipedia.  It moved from the city centre to a 3 acre site west of the city.  I visited the original garden which was the grounds of the BBC studios in Aberdeen.  It was quite a small garden so I can see why they would want a bigger site.

I watch the Beechgrove Garden every week and enjoy it.  I am sure some other Scottish members will back me up on this.  Jim Mc Coll has been with them since the beginning.  So enjoy watching it!!
