Leaves You Hungering For More

"The BBC television series Ground Force is a whole lot more than a gardening show. Like Trading Spaces, the team has 48 hours to complete their transformation, usually turning a weedy back garden into a thing of beauty in the space of 48 hours. In between this miraculous accomplishment, there is much banter, the occasional argument, and even a rare, full-blown snit. The team is marvelous, the projects imaginative, and the results always spectacular. It's a wonderful show, much more interesting than the subject implies. Great views of Britain abound as well. However, this DVD just whets the appetite for more. DVD releases by season would be much appreciated!"
Only Four Stars Because...

"...a "Best Of" DVD is not enough!!! The Ground Force team is amazing -- and especially so during the Titchmarsh years. I would love to sit and watch these episodes over and over again. Alan, Charlie, and Tommy are not only garden makeover geniuses, but they've winkled their way into the hearts of BBC America fans. Please, please, please release Ground Force in season by season compilations!"

"I miss this show. Though the DVD is a brief run through the shows it is so nice to visit with these three (really four) again. You'll remember all the locations, all the shows and their unique brand of shenanigans."
A little disappointed

"I love Ground Force... but I really want to buy the series... This DVD is just a collection of the cast fooling around with bits here and there of them doing several different lawns. It's better than nothing.... but doesn't really give a good overall view of what this show is all about."
