That's a shame. He suffers from deep depression so maybe that's part of it. He got into gardening as a therapy for that. I do so love the programme though. Like a breath of fresh air.

Re: BBC reporting

I like to watch stuff on the BBC, no annoying adverts, and there are some great documentaries on BBC 4 but I haven't watched the news for ages, and when I do I feel I'm been brainwashed. As for the BBC interviewers, have you seen the behaviour of the channel four journalists? Disgraceful!

BBC 4 is very good!
BBC news seems to cover a few stories over and over again.

Didn't Monty Don have a stroke not long ago?
He's not as good as Alan, who want as good as Geoff!

No one will ever be as good as Geoff.

Re: BBC reporting

Euronews every time. No faces, no celebrities, just plain news and to the point. They have have a "NO COMMENT" session daily, which just shows any significant happening in the world, no words, just sound and video.

Laura K is a despicable example of a self-opinionated rude female interviewer says Mrs D. Bias personified....

You mean the Titchmarsh? The gardener who moved to the Isle of Wight, bought a property which would have had a sea view, but a tree (with TPO) blocked the view!!! Shucks!
Never fear as the soon to be Lord High Sheriff of the Island had said tree chopped down and casually paid the fine!
S'easy when you know how!

Re: BBC reporting

What's that got to do with how good a presenter he is?
