Gardeners' World is back - hooorah!🕺🏼 The team kick off the 2025 series with Monty up a VERY high ladder before Frances Tophill takes us to Melksham in Wiltshire to Lorraine and Sandy Macfarlane's beautiful garden equipped with recycled, upcycled and salvaged farmyard paraphernalia. We visit Puppetry Director & Designer Oliver Hymans & his Arts Communication Consultant partner Marcus Crofton’s place in Dalston, North East London to see how they've transformed an empty balcony into their own miniature Great Dixter, before heading over to the Isle of Wight with Adam Frost to meet Head Gardener Wayne Williams at the stunning Ventnor Botanic Gardens. Finally we take a stroll around Fiona Cumberbatch's cheerful and colourful garden in Stamford near Peterborough to learn how she was able to turn a concrete and clay backyard into a thriving space using pots and clever carboot finds.
