Looking back it was a rather crazy idea and unfortunately for me that time has come round far sooner than expected! The show starts next Tuesday.....HELP ME!!! As long as my mentor, the legendary vegetable ninja Charlie Macey thinks mine aren't too embarrassingly bad I shall be showing my onions, dwarf French beans and stump carrots. They have been lovingly tended in my garden all summer long.
Over the summer I visited a few vegetable shows and now know just how stiff the competition is. As well as being great characters my competitors are only what can be termed as obsessive perfectionists. Most of them haven't had a summer holiday for years as they wouldn't leave their plants for more than a day. However I can now see how one can get hooked on this life as there is something magical and beautiful about perfect vegetables - not that I can say I've grown any yet, but I have certainly seen some.
It's all being filmed as part of my one hour special which will be aired next year I believe, so please wish me luck - I can assure you I'm going to need every single ounce of it!
