Joining us this week is the nation’s favourite and most trusted gardener, with a 20-year career as a celebrated television host and author – it’s the delightful Monty Don!

Ahead of the release of his new book, ‘The Gardening Book’ - which caters to both green-fingered enthusiasts and those new to the world of gardening - he joins us to share the fascinating journey of how he became one of the biggest names in gardening. This takes us from his childhood, where he flunked out of school, to courting his now-wife during university (proving that playing the long game can work), to losing everything after the collapse of his jewellery business, and finally, starting life anew in the world of gardening and on the small screen.
