I am getting more than a little tired of seeing the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú (not only in Gardener's World, but also in their other broadcasts) not attributing Rutland to reports and locations! 'Barnsdale Gardens' is definitely in the very heart of Rutland....reference GW broadcast 24th October.
Rutland became independant from Leicestershire in 1997, and I am sure that the population would appreciate it very much if this could be properly recognised.
I think that an apology is called for.

Lighten up and get a life!!!
Rutland is not a stand alone county and only got its status back because it is full of Yahoos with influence!!
You'll be saying next that it's not in the boring East Midlands but in the "Heart of England". Snobbery at its worst, and the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú do right to be wholly geographical.
Pity there was not more shots of Barnsdale though on Friday'd GW - wherever it may be

Rutland is a County - it has a County Council - so it might be an idea to check the facts Jayelle.
I don't live in Rutland, but the caption was wrong, and the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú should get things right.

I know that "technically " it is a county - in reality it is part of Leics and couldn't stand alone!!!
