Next Presenter of Gardeners' World?

[Plocket]

I'd be surprised if they got Chris Beardshaw back. And I forgot to nominate the lovely Andy Sturgeon

[Weeterrier]

I like him too Plocket. A lovely animated face.

[Auricula]

Have you noticed how, since she has been the main presenter, both her hair and her clothes have become more "mainstream"?? I do like her though, she really seems to enjoy herself and when I met her at Chelsea she was so friendly,knowledgeable and accommodating - no side to her whatsoever!!

[snowowl]

Mathew Wilson because he good looking and who would be listening any way its like the advert of the sexy man eating chocolate and the girl says has he been talking ;D

[Ladygardener]

I think Bob Flowerdew would be brilliant, we don't see enough of him and he's so inspiring growing all those veg in containers etc, he's got a really easy going manner too. ;D

[Weeterrier]

I wish they'd at least bring Bob Flowerdew back from time to time, though with an hour to play with now, he could have a few minutes every week. He is the King of recycling and would be certain to give us a few good ideas.

Gardeners' World series producer Rosemary Edwards told AG:
"Right now it's unthinkable to say who will fill Monty's shoes. Our main concern is for Monty's health.
"We have nothing to hide. Gardeners' World will continue to go out on Friday nights and it is business as usual at Berryfields."
I hope that means EVERY Friday night, without let or hindrance.

Ah Snowy that's such a lovely way of putting it

[Auricula]

I'd like to see a regular slot with Bob Flowerdew in it - also Sven Wombwell would attract younger gardeners

[Mr Grinch]

Please not Bob Flowerdew ! He's a bit bonkers for my liking !

G

[Weeterrier]

No, Mr Grinch, he's totally bonkers. ;D But he does have good ideas.

[Auricula]

He is very knowledgeable, and although he is a passionate advocate of organic production he is not smug or preachy about it and realises that others may have differing views. I do wish he'd get rid of that plait though - most ageing!!

[Plocket]

As much as I like Bob's ethics, he's just not viewable in my opinion.

[nightowl]

I know he's not on the list but I do like This Morning's gardening man David Dominey

He seems to talk sense and is very easy on the eye (IMO) ;D

[Barbara]

but where will it be,??

[Spruance]

Just a reminder that the poll closes at 7:51pm TODAY!

So anyone who hasn't voted, but would like to has just over 15 minutes to do so.

[Spruance]

Thanks to everyone for voting.

It would appear that the Dream Team is Carol Klein & Chris Beardshaw! ;D

Actually, that's not a bad combination imho.

[Weeterrier]

I thought last night's show was great, and if they kept that format, I would be perfectly happy.

I'm sure he'll be in the running and win by a hair's breadth or plait!
