I love this show, kind of puts Gardeners World in the shade I feel.

For those unaware, you can watch it on iplayer now even from England/Wales, it usually appears on iplayer about 15 minutes after it first airs in scotland

I am a convert, I much prefer Beechgrove over gardeners world now, ill still watch both though

 

Glad you lot down South like 1 of the very few Scottish programmes that are any good. DO NOT watch River City on the other hand which should come with a health warning that it could bring on early dementia!
I too watch Beechgrove and really enjoy it. Years ago my previous garden was virtually destroyed by a terrible flood. I lost most of my plants (anything planted for less than about 4 years) tonnes of topsoil, my greenhouse you name it. I also acquired tonnes of silt and stones which were dumped into the garden. I send an email to Carol Baxter to ask her advice about how to best tackle the huge mess. Not only did she reply but she came to see me and the problem. Her great kindness and encouragement gave me the enthusiasm to get going on the mammoth clear up and redo the garden. I'm not sure that without her input I would have had the heart to redo what I'd taken years to create.
