The BBC is 'in talks' with Alan Titchmarsh in the hope that he will
return to front Gardener's World. This follows scores of complaints
about the current lacklustre presentation and lack of genuine gardening
tips and advice. I hope it materialises. I think he's a really good
presenter and he does know his gardening. I know I've said it before
but he does have that rare and valuable gift of making everyone feel as
if he's talking to them personally.


I find him immensely irritating, and his jokey style and 'confidential'
asides patronising. But if he does go back to Gardeners World (which I
don't watch), maybe we'll see less of him elsewhere :-)


Optimist.

On the same basis, I foresee Adrian Chiles taking over GW.


Benny Hill's cousin you mean!
