It used to be a 30 minute programme, and was the better for it. One of the things that has, IMO, gone wrong with the current show is all the padding to try to extend it to a 60 minute show and as a result, it being filled with trivia and presenters padding out the dialogue in a cringworthy manner. |

After all, the "next generation" has to come from somewhere (and I still consider myself a novice, although not very young). But it can be done in a sensible and serious manner. What really bugged me was all this trivia, as somebody else has noted, things like 30.minute makeovers and other pratting about. What I want to see is good, nitty-gritty gardening and less of the lardy-dah firlefanz. Regards Alan |

What with BBC 1 2 3 and 4, and the Gardeners QT on the radio, there should be enough space to put out a programme for each. And in this world of the Tinternet, just dust off some old Geoff Hamilton and other classic 'how to' basic guides, and put them on the internet. You certainly don't need to commission yet another 5minute sequence on buliding and managing a compo heap! M |
