Beechgrove Garden

Our visit from the Beechgrove Garden film crew went very well. Jim really is quite a character and it was good to chat with him about his gardening experiences. As usual we did film quite a lot more than actually went on air this is just as well.
A couple of weeks after the filming I had a call to say that the camera man had lost a bit of the recording this was mainly still shots of the Thuja family trees where they naturally layer themselves and also the Mull syndrome where the tree falls over in a gale and then the sideshoots grow upwards to become new trees. I was asked if I had a decent digital camera if so could I go into the garden at a similar time of day in similar weather conditions to take a few stills of these groups of trees. I was very relieved when the producer said that they had been able to use them.
