Not before time, Channel 5 is beginning to behave like a grown-up.
After an eternity of sullen, teenage strops, the station is finally starting to act its age and take an interest in gardening.
For most of its 24 years, C5 has cared about nothing but cheap reality TV and gross-out shows about hoarders and debt collectors. It wallowed in titles such as Can t Pay: We ll Take It Away, Bargain Brits On Benefits, My Mum s Hotter Than Me and The Nightmare Neighbour Next-Door.
These programmes are telly s equivalent of refusing to tidy your room and staring at your phone all the way through a meal when your grandma visits.

Houghton s five-acre Walled Garden is perhaps the jewel in its crown.
The old kitchen garden was commissioned by Lord Cholmondeley to be redesigned in 1991 as a memorial to his grandmother, Lady Sybil Cholmondeley.
