I see the Preview show is on ´óÏó´«Ã½1 on Sunday 22nd of May with AT and JS providing the "wet the appetite" programme followed by saturation cover over the rest of the week.
Glad to see our Christine in the presenter line up which always brings a sense of gardening reality ,with a smile , to the proceedings.
Hope the exhibitors have not had too hard a season like the rest of us!.

I do like Christine I wish she was on the TV more....
Seeing Joe going round the same Chelsea garden design time after time is not something I look foward to.

I do hope your are recording onto a hard disc as if your on DVD, or dare I say VHS, you will have a full time job changing over recording media .
If its like last year there is the normal high proportion of repeated items within supposedly new programmes so a fast forward option will be very handy .If AT and JS do their supposedly comedic double act again it will be doubly handy .
I do wish they realised comedy is an art form to carry off properly all about timing , good acting ,material etc etc- just wish they would stick to the gardening IMHO.
Humax hard disc recorder
I agree about the "humour"
Looking forward to seeing Toby on the red button coverage as well!
11 hours on ´óÏó´«Ã½1 and ´óÏó´«Ã½2
5 hours on red button - completely unseen on ´óÏó´«Ã½1 & 2 - not extended footage of the main channels but extra coverage researched and filmed seperately by red button ´óÏó´«Ã½ team.
Some repeats of ´óÏó´«Ã½1 & 2 on red button in addition to independent footage.
Christine, Toby and James are the main presenters, it will be great coverage.

Well it will be good if Toby and Christine are on the red button...Sorry dont know who James is.

James Alexander Sinclair - a lovely man with a lyrical way with words when describing plants and combinations and design. He's an experienced designer, speaker and writer and has a wonderful blog. Here's a lovely self deprecating description of him and his work -

Hope the weather is good for the people...

He does know his stuff.He is a very witty writer and broadcaster ( sometimes not quite as witty as he thinks he is..but hey, that applies to most of us ) I love reading his pages in GW magazine and I'm glad he's doing Chelsea
