Some of the footage is shakey, wobbley but we're getting better. I've heeded the advice of some forum members and setup alternate files you can download in windows media player and quicktime formats.

Most of the footage has audio - some of the early chelsea flower show footage doesn't have an audio channel. The audio is rough as guts but definately adds some flavour
Turn the volume up and you'll hear posh gardening ladies thanking designers and debating bedding plants and birds chirping. You'll also unfortunately hear fellow garden show goers apologising for getting in the way and an occasional New Zealand accent.
Enjoy.

22 Dec '04 6:06 pm Apart from my usual gripe about slow download speeds(it's taken about 10 minutes to DL the 17 sec sequence.. )everything else is brilliant stuff...YAY for Eggy and Bex.
I am very excited about seeing the upcoming Beth Chatto Gardens, they would have been on my Nomination List for 2005 Garden Tours
Ditto for Heligan.. I've got two videos taken from Series 1 & 2 for Heligan shown on NZ TV a year or two back and would love to see how Heligan has grown since then.Whilst in Cornwall how about the Eden Project as well?
Barnsley House also comes to mind, Sticky Wicket in Dorset(I think ) , can anyone confirm that
From a personal point of view I like to see "real gardens" as well as the better known "posh" ones....I know the Open Gardens Scheme in England always has hundreds of them open over the summer in some very lovely small villages, lots and lots of Moosey style Country Gardens...whoooeee, can't wait team..
