Default Fri 3:15 pm BBC2 'Open Gardens'

A really nasty cold kept me home so I managed to catch this today.
What a pity it is tucked away in an afternoon slot, because it really
does warrant a more accessible viewing time. It is a tale of gardeners
aspiring to join the National Gardens Scheme and gives insight into the
trials and tribulations involved in preparing them for inspection and
hopefully, acceptance. I thoroughly enjoyed it, the programme is a
real treat and a far cry from the idiotic daytime gardening 'shows'
that have cluttered the screen in recent years.
