Default Gardeners World should be pulled

I cant avoid watching Gardeners World,since it seems part of our
Friday evening ritual.However,last night the programme was
awful.Making raised beds using a curved design,and requiring
individual timber pieces was just ridiculous.Also the silly 30 min
tasks got sillier this week with trying to make roof gardens over
sheds and guinea pig hutchs.In the spice bed plants were thrown in at
random,with few described.The only interesting thing was the sowing of
green seed for the propagating of primroses,but since primroses seed
themselves naturally,even this was hardly worth it.
The content now is awful,and I am afraid to say that I think the
series should be pulled.

The wife and me used to be avid viewers of the program when we lived in
England and have seen all presenters from Percy Thrower to Monty Don.
(Favourite was Geoff Hamilton). On our last visit to England in April we
saw the new series and were extremely disappointed with the new
presenters and the quality of the program. The program seems to have
lost its "heart" somehow and seemed little better than those crappy
make-over programmes with a sort of hippy twist.
