MONSTER HEDGES


Do you live in the shadow of a monster hedge? We're making a BBC One documentary

about Britain's biggest hedges. Have you seen one? Is your house blighted by

one? Or are you a proud Leylandii hedge owner? We want to hear from you!

Slow ideas day?


We thought about it, came up with hedges being a totally hilarious subject, and now we're clean out of ideas.


Some one had a wonderfully funny story about sewage, but it was crap.


Then we had one about a library, but it got shushed.


Hedge funds might be a laugh unless you've put your money in one.

I'm glad to have provoked such a lively discussion!


All I can say is that we have made great documentaries in the past http://www.landmarkfilms.com/ and we hope to carry on doing so with this one. If anyone is affected by an enormous Leylandii hedge, we'd like to hear from them.



Hmm, not quite sure. If the milkman was upset by one and he took it out on a customer who took it out on a cashier in the bank who took it out the till operator in the shop on the way home from work and she took it out on me when I bought my bread, then I suppose so. What fee is involved?


PS Why not just rerun Hairy Women.........I missed it first time?

I would have thought you would most likely find huge hedges in suburbia. They have far more space and more provincial minds.

One case in Lincolnshire was a courtroom battle for several years to get the hedge cut, finally the neighbours got their way and cut it down, only to find a second huge hedge planted a metre inside the first one.


I think it's unlikely for this subject to create much hilarity, as the perpetrators of such hedges are such selfish cretins, and their sparring partners are whingeing anal retentives.


I wish you luck with your project, I fear you will need it to maintain your ratings.

That looked o.k to me Lilith.

If a different angle on hedges cpould be made,it would be more interesting,I couldnt sit through yet another crackpot

neighbour feud ,just because one of them is a control freak. Lots of those have been on the tv.

Rather see topiary and more futuristic type projects with hedges and gardens,and some thought given to wild life.

You sure your project manager has not got a beef with his neighbours hedge and wants to do some point scoring.

Education in life is what we need, not education in strife.

    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
