A wise man once said, \"gardening adds years to your life and life to your years\" and on this episode of Chit-Chats, we meet that wise man.
James was on Gardeners' World 2026 episode 2 when he and his son Noah gave us a tour of their pretty garden in Weymouth, but you may also know James from his appearance on series 4 of the BBC's The Traitors.
In this Chit-Chat, we hear more about James' time as a Faithful, as well as his gardening business and love of the outdoors. Whether it's heading to the beach during his lunch break with flip-flops and towel at the ready, or making regular trips to the New Forest for some therapeutic tree time, it's clear that nature plays a big part in his life.
We also take a musical meander, hearing about James' own music career, the \"shedudio\" where he records, a few gems from his extensive CD collection, and some words of wisdom for Sweetpea.
And that's all before we delve into what would make James' dream garden; a magical place of multi-country influences, Eden Project style greenhouses, willow archways to private beaches (strictly pebble not sand), mineral waterfalls, majestic giant redwoods, and more.
