This is the wonderful DVD of the classic BBC TV programme 'The Victorian Kitchen Garden' narrated by the brilliantly mono-tone Peter Thoday and starring the original kitchen gardener himself, Harry Dodson. TV doesn't get better than this.

Customer Reviews

Victorian Kitchen Garden is a must
With great delight my package arrived and I consumed all 13 wonderful episodes in one day. I have shared it with friends and family and family of friends and we all love it. We watch it over and over again when it is too hot to go outside and work in our garden. Harry is such a delightful chap and such a natural. We desperately need Victorian Kitchen and Victorian Flower Garden on DVD too; videos just couldn't cope with that much use!

Wonderful!
This is a wonderful series. Anyone interested in growing their own food will enjoy this series. Harry Dodson is a delight. Please, please put The Victorian Kitchen and The Victorian Flower Garden on DVD!

Gardening at its best
I remember seeing a few episodes of this when it was first broadcast on telly,and I enjoyed it.Some years ago I aquired the whole series on video,and have watched it many times.Now that The Victorian Kitchen Garden,The Victorian Flower Garden and The Victorian Kitchen are available on DVD this is a must have for any novice or experienced gardener.
Harry Dodson,like his father and grandfather before him was employed at "The Big House" working his way up from journeyman to eventually becoming Head Gardener.
The late Harry Dodson who inspired me to take up growing Fruit and Vegetables back in the 1980's was a very knowledgable and delightful man.If you want to be inspired to grow your own veg even in a small garden,then this is definitely the best documentary type film to watch.As one episode finishes you find you can't wait to watch the next one and see what they do next.
Even the music is fine,as is the way they transform this old walled garden
that was run down and neglected back to its former glory. Like others have said this series is truly inspirational,and I can't recommend it stongly enough.
While you are at it though,I higly recommend the complete set of Three Victorian DVD's
