About this listen

All eight episodes of the quirky sitcom about a team of council gardeners

Senior gardener Alec, his assistant Danny and new boy Jack are employed by the council to cut lawns, prune roses, trim hedges and maintain the municipal parks and gardens. What they actually do is spend their days hanging out in the potting shed, drinking tea and dodging the incessant rain and their short-sighted supervisor, Mr MacIntyre.

They may not do much gardening, but they have their work cut out wrangling the local wildlife, from nicotine-addicted killer squirrels and a pampered parakeet to a spoilt shih tzu and an escaped chimp. Add to that Danny’s dodgy money-making schemes, the suspicious activities of the housing scheme’s pensioners, a supercilious ex-girlfriend and a power-crazed head park keeper, and they’ve got their hands full.

As the green-fingered trio attempt to judge over-sized marrows, line mark a football pitch, hunt for a buried fortune and train Jack for the annual lawnmower racing championship, the seeds are sown for some horticultural high-jinks…

Tony Osoba stars as Alec, with Forbes Masson and Jack Docherty as Danny, Stuart Sinclair Blyth as Jack and Lewis MacLeod as Mr MacIntyre.
