Since organic gardeners are still
a small minority of the total, the BBC should stamp on him before he
alienates a lot of viewers.

I'm old enough to remember when the BBC felt it had a purpose to educate
and to raise standards, rather than simply pander to the tastes of the
majority.

That rings a bell. Isn't that part of its motto in some way?

The mandate is still to inform, educate and entertain.

but not all three simultaneously :-)


But why not? I'm looking forward to the new Bill Oddie wildlife programme
for a start! (Tonight, I think)
