Default Titchmarsh comeback?

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. It's a great
tool of the trade for a tv presenter and especially one who's
actually trying to teach people something. IOO, all will be well if
it's a proper gardening programme that does *not* rely on an instant
makeover formula, however. Alan T and one other (Toby Buckland, Carol
Klein, Joe Swift?) would be quite enough and perhaps they could
focus on some real garden work! PS Isn't it fortunate that we *didn't*
all just 'switch off'? ;-))


Carol.....er, no. Joe....his allotment bit isn't bad. Toby.....would be fine
if he could be himself instead of following some daft producers script.
