The horticulture world (and Twitter) is alive with a rumour that gardening God and guru, Alan Titchmarsh, is about to make a sensational return to Gardeners' World to stem its loss of viewers.
The Daily Mail says that the sixty-year-old gardening favourite is in advanced negotiations with the BBC 'An announcement could be made in a matter of days'.
Titchmarsh, who lives in the village of Holybourne, near Alton in Hampshire will surely stir interest in the flagging show and the Mail say that current presenter, Toby Buckland, may stay on.
Blog and Internet sites have been discussing the shows new format since it moved to its current site at the Birmingham Botanical gardens.
Garden writer, Martyn Cox told his Twitter followers: "I admire Alan and think he's brilliant on TV, but going back to previous presenters isn't exactly forward thinking."
Martyn goes on to say, "BBC have denied Buckland rumour, but say they will make an announcement nxt week about a new gardening project led by AT"
