I am convinced that the BBC's so called coverage of the Chelsea Flower
Show is just an excuse for them to parade on our TV's the media
equivalent of the "great and the good".
The amount of info on plants and gardens is miniscule, and grows smaller
every year. The amount of silly "waffle" from the so called "famous"
grows greater each year. Why don't the BBC come clean, drop all
reference to the Flower Show and put on a version of "Spot the
celebrity" instead.
I've given up watching.
