And also on the same programme, Heather Russell's Northumberland garden will be featured.  Her garden, at Bolam, near Morpeth, is wonderful....

My best friend is also a great fan of Carol Klein. And her ultimate wish is to be in Gardeners World with her garden.
So when she had her 60th birthday last week, we surprised her! :o
Together with 3 other friends I came to her house and we were playing, we were a camera crew of BBC.
One of us was Carol Klein and interviewed her about her garden. It was great fun. ;D

Lina, I would still be a bit disapointed...lol but maybe this was the closest that your friend will ever be to a real Gardener´s World situation :D next year you have to bring her the real Carol Klein!

Jaime, she met Carol at the Chelsea Flower Show last year. There is a picture taken of them together. She is very happy with this of course.
But you are right, there is nothing better then the real Carol.
