wormery question

did anyone see the gardeners world wormery - the wheelbarrow.

I give this a try as we have a few old ones dotted around our site.

I saw it, but to be honest, just building a heap of leaves with wet newspaper would be just as good I should think. I can't think of a reason to put it in a wheelbarrow.
And you would be able to fit a whole lot more leaves on a heap. Or am I missing a reason for it here?

I also saw it and thought a waste of time and effort. Also head gardener would object to the obvious eyesore created. Also the idea of buying worms, did he say £5 ??
Can think of much better things to do with a fiver.

I watched it on the a pc, a laptop, so I couldn't see that well. But they didn't look like the right sort of worms to me. They probably were, I can't see GW making that mistake.

Can you explain how to make one. As I'm interested in trying it if it doesn't cost me anything. Have plenty of leaves collected this week and last Autumn.

What a wormery out of leaves?
You saw the program the same as I did, you now know as much as me
