| Re: wildlife gardens BBC Several conflicting issues here, i think:
1. the BBC has obviously recognised this as a hot enough issue to place on BBC1, mid-week, prime time, with a broad-appeal presenter in Nick Knowles
2. While maintaining the format of Groundforce/DIY SOS in giving this traditional 'only three days to do it in' thing, they have to create something which - as we all know - really takes much, much longer
3. The change in the gardens has to be extreme
4. It mustn't get too 'anorak-y' (although web back-up is essential in the more considered approach, and further information - i'd like to know how many hits the site has had)
HOWEVER:
There is a danger if the projects chosen all involve external contractors, heavy plant etc then those watching it may not realise that a wildlife area can be quite small, non-disruptive, quite cheap to create etc.
There's 4 to go - let's see what happens......
