Alan Titchmarsh, whose show Love Your Garden returns this evening on ITV, has been a gardening guru for almost 50 years. And the 72-year-old is certainly not planning to hang up his spade any time soon, recently revealing: "I don’t want to retire as I think you need a sense of purpose and a reason to get up in the morning. "So I’ll always be a gardener, I couldn’t do without that.

It’s part of me." The ex-Ground Force star told Wise Living Magazine earlier this year: "I live in a spot which is beautiful and which I hope I've made more beautiful.“ "Beautifying the earth on whatever scale is the most glorious privilege," he continued.
