Grow your own film on tonight

[Sprocket*]

What a great film, gently tackling so many issues head on. The Blue shed made me think about two sheds. Don't know whether I was shattered but I ended up shedding a few tears on a number of occasions. I wish our allotment was like that - friendly. We all have individual fenced off plots running the length of the lane so I don't get to see many people....

Hubby (who is not a gardener) and I both watched it. I knew he was enjoying it when he started guffawing at the man who had "womens troubles" Gentle British humour, multiple story lines that did not leave you baffled. Showing different facets of human nature. Loved it. Wanted to seriously slap the nasty business woman.

A whole evening on the gardening theme. Gardeners world and a lovely film. My OH watched it as well ( fortunately there was nothing else on so I had control of the remote ) and thought it was really good. A bit predictable but there was humour, social issues and a few tears. Add a glass of wine or two = a lovely evening.

Only just seen the thread so missed it. Still it was Friday and that means OH commands the remote for BB eviction. Still no doubt it will be repeated at some time.

Me and OH watched it, he thought it was as funny as me (although he didn't like it when I kept pointing out errors lol. Like the fact that it only rained ONCE, and that all the same people were there ALL the time, and how tidy everyone's plot's were and how they all looked the same, and the chinese man planting his seeds at the end in the Autumn, and me not thinking he could grow those melons like that outdoors here anyway etc...)

But apart from that I loved it

[JILLY JACKSON]

Do i player it Happy bunny ,well worth it!Seeing as you "missed a bit"

[Littlemouse]

I think it's available on BBC iplayer (not such a quick reply as I see this already been suggested.. wonder where the missing minutes went...)

[annacruachan]

Great! A well acted, well written and well produced British comedy drama. Food for thought and the baddie got his comeuppance. We loved it.

Just watched it on the i-player. lovely film. Thanks for the heads up.

[Pumpkin Becki]

Darn, I missed it, and we can't get iplayer to work properly. Will have to wait for next time. Can anyone remind me what its called please, so I can keep my eyes open for it?

I enjoyed it too. I was mightily amused though, at the fact that every plot-holder seemed to be there all day and every day. We only have a dozen plots on our site and I'm often there on my own. However, you can tell from looking at the plots that they are very well cared for - we just all choose different times!

Check out Amazon as you can buy it on DVD Hubbie got it for me as a pressie a while back, another fab british film about Growing things with a brilliant social message is Green Fingers with Clive Owen and Helen Mirren amongst others, that is available on DVD too and is a real cracker of a film. Based on a true story of some fellas away at her majesty's pleasure designing a show garden for RHS Hampton course and how gardening and growing veg changes their lives. Check it out.
