Did anyone else shed a tear at the end of Gardeners' World this week?
Monty Don said goodbye after the best part of two decades in charge of a most beloved corner of the TV landscape. Any gardener will tell you that they know the layout of Long Meadow (Monty's home/ garden) often better than they know their own.
He will be sorely missed as part of our Friday night routines - and so we've dug into our cellar to bring you this interview with Monty from a similar time of year in 2024. It's a fascinating insight into the backstory of someone who only came to public fame later in life.
Thank you Monty. We all hope to bump into you in our local garden centre soon.
Cheers xx
