Is this the program where the owner goes away for a day and a bare backyard 
is made into a garden?  If so, wouldn't that be modeled on the BBC Ground 
Force which has the advantage of three endearing and well known 
personalities?   I thought they were similar to the HGTV program going 
nowhere without a Charlie Dimmock.  My husband loves Ground Force, puzzling 
to me.  Maybe we should write also, to the BBC, asking them to send along 
more of their programming.

Another aside, the BBC magazine is still on special offer to Americans.  My 
second subscribed copy came today with all kinds of offers and trips and 
things we should try to do in some magazine.  Also free seeds, delphiniums 
and scabious.  If you give this a try there are 6 month and 12 month offfers. 
 Take the 12 months as you cannot have this price to extend a subscription.   
After the original offer it becomes very expensive as one garden friend 
discovered.  A one year treat for less than Fine Gardening, plus free seeds 
in each issue and an armchair tour.
