1 oscar from long ashton: I think that up the garden path is great rainy day television. It's light, un adulterated humour that can't offend any one. What better way is there to spend one of autumn's rainy evenings than sitting down on a comfy sofa with a mug of hot chocolate infront of an episode of up the garden path? However I do think that Tessa Peake-jones was probably not necessary.
