I don't remember anyone moaning about none of the presenters of cooking

Isn't Mr Oliver involved with advertising for Sainsbury's? And some
of the others with other food chains/suppliers?

I notice there is no moaning about the Gardening coverage on commercial
channels.


Is there any?

Remember when GW had millions of viewers each week we had 3 channels not
the multiplicity that we now have, if you have satellite then well over
50 to choose from.


And nothing worth watching on any of them, most of the time.

Yes Mr Oliver is involved in Sainsburys adverts and Mr Titchmarch lends
his name to B&Q gardening, not to mention a certain female TV
personality with her own on-line gardening enterprise
