again, and I don't think I'd be alone.

I have the "Geoff Hamilton Collection" on DVD, comprising the three
"standalone" series he did - Ornamental Kitchen Garden, Cottage
Gardens and Paradise Gardens (completed posthumously). I watch them
fairly frequently.

Cheers, Jake
When I watch a re-run of old gardening programmes such as Geoff Hamilton's I find they have a certain 'quaint naivety', having watched Beechgrove this morning I found it has the same 'quaint naivety' which I enjoyed. Over all quite a good programme and providing the production team don't get delusions of grandeur it should stay that way.






It just lacks a Nigel or a Sylvie. :-) :-)
