The new series will begin on Friday 14th March at 8pm on BBC Two and iPlayer.

Horticulturist and broadcaster Monty Don has been a mainstay on the BBC Two programme since 2003, having only ever taken one break from 2008 to 2011.

Having been the lead presenter for over 20 years, there have been worries that Don could move on – but in an interview with Radio Times magazine last year, he has confirmed that will not be the case.

Asked on his plans to continue, Don said: "I never make plans beyond two years, but I’ve agreed to do another two [from January 2025].

"Every time I think, 'Am I really going to do this?' But the truth is that I do enjoy it. I’m lucky because it’s in my own garden. If the programme is made well, I’ll continue."

The BBC are yet to confirm what Monty and the team will be getting up to this time round, but it'll surely be filled with all the gardening goodness viewers know and love.
