I caught a little of Radio Devon's breakfast show this morning and they were trailing an hour long Q&A with the leader of Torbay council (I think - it might have been the mayor or something similar) which will be broadcast on Friday morning either between 8 am and 9 am (or maybe 9am and 10 am).
Apparently the gardens still look wonderful and the tennis courts are still in use.
Oldway has, apparently, been the source of plenty of questions so far. The presenter gave the impression that "inundated with questions" and "over-whelmed by the response" and "have never seen so much interest in such a feature before" where phrases that could reasonably be applied.
It might be worth a listen on Friday.
