I'd better write myself a note or I'm sure to forget.

We'll have to do a countdown

Only 9 more days until Beechgrove is back on TV

Sadly not on TV for me and I do HATE watching TV progs on my 'puter

[Bren In Pots]

We don't have Sky so I watch on Iplayer.

We don't have Sky so I watch on Iplayer.

That's what is annoying, we have cable which has loads of regional channels but not that one and although we get iplayer as part of the catch up package from Virgin I don't think this is covered and so I have to resort to downloading which just doesn't feel right - I know it's better than nothing but such a shame a good programme doesn't get a wider audience on proper TV

[Bren In Pots]

I introduced the program to my next door neighbour and its now his favourite gardening program.

Alison, I'm on Virgin too, and I'm sure I get the local BBC channels right at the back of the list of programs, towards 900 on the menu. Might be worth us having a look on Thursday night eh?

[SarrissUK]

Just had a look and I don't have BBC 2 Scotland.. only BBC 1 Scotland

I know, that's what I found too, was quite excited (sad, I know) when I found BBC1 but my happiness was short lived.

What channel is this Beechgrove on ? We are about to change our telly system (fell out with talktalk) and am wondering if we'll be able to watch it..

[Alison]

It's on BBC 2 Scotland which presumably everybody in Scotland can get on normal TV and apparently people who subscribe to Sky can too but Cable defo can't (unless they live in Scotland) and am pretty sure it's not on Freeview either but haven't checked for certain.

[binley100]

We're looking at a smartview thingy .......I'll have to do some digging ...

[biggreenfingers]

I think freesat has all of the regional channels. I have a humax foxsat HD box in my caravan and I can remember watching gardeners world last year on one of the regional BBC2 channels as BBC2 Northern Ireland were always showing Ulster Rugby on Friday nights. Will confirm the next time I am up after this weekend.

[Florence Fennel]

Wowser! They actually had a feature on vegetables last night growing in hot beds and Monty talked a little bit about rotation. Things are looking up. A bit.

No, it's not on Freeview - I have to watch it on iPlayer.
