Forgotmyname do you mean Carol Klein Carol Kirkwood is the weather lady? Carol Kirkwood is a very nice lady all the same although I'm not sure about her prowess on the garden.;)

As radiohelen says. Carol Kirkwood. Indeed she does do the weather or did? I dont know i look out the window to see what the weather is doing

Looks like Chris Beardshaw is joining Beechgrove, also Beechgrove is going to be broadcast nationwide on BBC2 on a Sunday? (rather than just BBC2 Scotland/iplayer)

I was about to admit to having a crush on Monty. Then I looked at that photo. Flattering it aint! :rotfl:

Someone told me earlier that Gardeners World has been pulled forever.

Could this be true?

Wishful thinking but a very good idea.

Monty's new greenhouse must have cost a packet! Hopefully the BBC license fee payer wasn't invoiced...

A quick heads up for anyone who enjoys this.

The Beechgrove Garden is back on Thursday 4th April at 19.30 on BBC2 Scotland (SKY 970) and on Sunday 7th April on BBC2 network, time TBC

Thanks Badrick, I've just spotted this on the BBC news site, there'll be a lot of happy people south of the border!
Gardening programme The Beechgrove Garden will be shown south of the border for the first time when it returns for a new series in the spring.
It has been a hardy perennial in Scotland for 35 years but has not been shown on the full BBC network before.
The show, presented from Aberdeen for more than 30 years by Jim McColl, will be broadcast on BBC One Scotland, with a Sunday morning repeat on BBC Two.
Something to look forward to at last!:j
Sorry, just read back a few comments and realised that it's already been posted.:o Still chuffed to bits though!:T

Gardeners world is so boring unless you want to look at gardens the size of a park.:D Just so unpracticle to people with normal gardens who, want to grow a few veg.

yea why do people dye their hair jet black when they are in their 40 s or 50 s.?, It doesnt look natural at all, plus it makes your face look very white and show the wrinkles up more .:eek:. I agree that pic of him looks terrible........
Id much rather have Toby Buckland hosting the show he is far more practical gardener and very down to earth...........
