This is great news. Without the change Gardeners World would have declined yet further. Lets hope the producers focus on real gardening with plants - not bespoking garden sheds, timing yourself doing jobs etc. Welcome back Monty and team!
I'm absolutely delighted that Monty Don is coming back again. I gave up watching GW when Toby Buckland was presenting, the programme became dreary and uninspiring/ Now I have something to really look forward to next spring.
I think this is great news. This line up consists of truly great gardeners and Monty and has been sadly missed in this programme. With Rachel Joe and Carol I think this will bring life back into a great programme.
Sorry to see Toby go. Maybe he was a little to macho with Alys on one occasion. Toby had energy and it inspired. When I am in an old farts mood I prefer Alan. Monty will save me having drinking chocolate at bed time but its Toby that will get my boots on. Harry.
Monty like so many book-taught gardeners camouflages a lack of a wide-ranging gardening knowledge in elegant words and navel-gazing. Toby doesn't need to because he is a true son of the soil. As they say, any idiot can make things look difficult, but it takes a genius to make them simple.
I am thrilled that monty is coming back missed him. have not like the programme since he left will be coming back to watch the programme when he returns.
Again thankyou thank you for coming back, just love his style of gardening.
Thrilled that Monty and Rachel are coming back to Gardeners' World. For the first time in years I haven't been able to watch with Toby at the helm as I felt he was just patronising. I did like Alys tho' so hope we see her on our screens again in something else as I enjoyed her own series about growing edible plants in her back garden in amongst her flowers.
WooooooHoooooo! I havent watched gardeners world for over 12 months, Im over the moon that Monty's back - and Rachel too, brilliant!! I will be watching every week now!
