Monty Don signed off for the final time on Gardeners’ World this evening (6 November) as his two decade-long run hosting the BBC show came to an end.
Don announced he was hanging up his shears in September after deciding ‘it was time to stop’, having taken over from Alan Titchmarsh in 2002.
Thanking viewers at the end of the episode, the 71-year-old said: “There has been one constant factor and that has been the incredible privilege and pleasure of sharing my garden and my gardening life with you here as well as working with so many superb people.
“Thank you for coming on that journey with me.”
