    I found it a pain, but thank goodness for catch up tv! I actually love watching all 3 gardening shows together on sundays image
  • Well atleast it's voiced a lot of people's frustration image

  • I am pleased that I am not the only one who thinks we gardeners get short measure. In these days of increased awareness of the health value of gardening and fresh fruit and veg you would have thought there would have been an increase in gardening programmes or is it not sexy enough?

  • It doesn't really bother me but that's because I never watch it 'live' anyway, I'm usually busy doing something else so have it on series link and I catch up.

    Having said that, it is still frustrating that the BBC feel they can just move programmes around whenever they feel like it so I'm glad the point was raised image

    I can never understand that when there are so many channels available showing b***** all and endless repeats that programmes with a regular spot are moved or cancelled.

    Why not put snooker,Wimbledon,Olympics or any other sporting event on a dedicated channel?

  • I reckon "live" tv will die out eventually anyhow, its just things moving ever forward! Then it will simply be a case of choose what you want to watch and when, no advert breaks, no having your favourite programme moved. image



    Mind you i thought we would have sky cars by now too!image
  • On Tomorrow's World they promised us we'd all have Jet Packs by now image
