Is she the front end of an ass?
Is she the back end of an ass?
Neither? - then she is no end of an ass!*
(Pantomine joke no - offence intended to any living person)
Maybe just maybe, she or Carol Klein will take over on GW now. It's about time we had an enthusiastic female presenter, One who 'doesn't need a script' and knows her stuff.
Oh god no, please no, not Christine !!!!
Relax. "Chirpy" professional northener Christine has no chance of taking over as the nation's head gardener has she! Has she???
She is doing the Garden Centre thing at the moment, doing at talk at the Centre near Ebbs Fleet International Station hope she does not miss the train or get a return ticket.
Can you post the full list of her engagements so I can make sure I don't bump into her
oh no, not Carol. She´s a nice lady I´m sure, but I really get tired of her arms waving about all the time. PLEASE CAROL, STOP WAVING YOUR ARMS ABOUT SO MUCH!! It doesn´t add anything.
carol will do for me shes excellent and her enthusiasm is catching along with loads of knowledge of both plants and veg its about time we had a lady in charge mavoman
To Cynthia M Why do you people have to be so rude. Why don't you try doing it.If no offence was meant why bother even posting it.

Hi Myplot
I'm afraid you misunderstood. I heard that Christine was doing panto when she guested on some TV show (Paul O'Grady?) although it might have been a joke.
The no end of an ass joke was a follow on from other panto bad jokes rather than anything to do with Christine and I flagged it as not intending to offend to make it clear that it wasn't meant to offend.
Unfortunately if people want to be offended they will always find some way to be so. Perhaps you owe me an apology.
Handbags at dawn?
She gave a talk in Beeford (East Yorks) and was at a garden fair in Driffield not long after.I think she's making a nice little living at personal appearences, and I'm sure she knows her limitations so she won't be fronting GW. Carol would be excellent! And yes she is nice, I spoke with her at the first Tatton Park fair and she had time for everyone. And I love her earrings!
I think Christine would be great.
please no!!

I love Christine and her fun and light heartedness.
Please not Christine, I am sure she is a very nice and enthusiastic person but she drives me nuts, sorry.
Nice try littleboy8 but no thanks - once was enough, twice was .. plain awful.
So do I. A real woman not a "tv presenter"! With a regular spot for fabulous Reg from next door...what a pair of characters they are!
I like Carol Klein, but she drives me mad with her arm waving and "Come and have a look at this" and really noisy enthusiasm. compare that with Chris Beardshaw, who took us round the plants and made the trip really enjoyable. Please Carol, tone it down a bit!
Hi Cynthia, I still don't understand why you had to even post it. Everyone has a right to their opinion and you read mine. Some of the other posters were already going down the road of making jokes at Christines expense. Not everyone though I agree. Some were merely stating what she's currently doing. I didn't intend to offend anyone however innocently
