Monty Don will leave Gardeners' World. He works on the show for 23 years. People feel sad about this news. The show has a long history. David Attenborough starts the show. He wants to show color TV. But Don makes the show great. He learns gardening by himself. This helps new people watch. They do not feel scared now.
A stroke takes him away once. He comes back to Longmeadow. This place is his home. We watch his garden grow. Sometimes it looks beautiful. Sometimes it looks bad. We feel close to him. He gets older and open. He says what he thinks. The show teaches patience. Many people watch during the pandemic.
Other people may take over. Adam Frost is one choice. Frances Tophill knows about plants. Jamie Butterworth is another choice. But Don will not stop. He will write more books. He will make more shows. He is the best.
