Default Gardeners' World goes back to its roots with Monty

On Dec 8, 9:03*am, Derek wrote:
Monty Don is returning to the helm of Gardeners' World, almost three
years after a stroke forced him to leave the show.

The 55-year-old will replace Toby Buckland, who was informed by BBC
bosses yesterday that his contract will not be renewed. Buckland was
said to be "devastated" by the decision.

Alys Fowler, another Gardeners' World regular, is also leaving the
programme, the BBC announced. Carol Klein and Joe Swift will return
for the new series alongside Rachel de Thame.

What a shame, no more of Alice in wander land. But why bring in Rachel
de Thame, she is almost as bad.
Lets hope we get a good Prog as a result, it has been getting better
slowly.
