Looking for a series of gardening programmes, and presenter's name,
that used to be on BBC (I think) a long time ago, maybe 1980s. The
man had a very distinct voice. It's not Geof Hamiltom. Before him.

I used to like him. He had a pleasant, soothing voice. Keen
on fruit trees as I remember.

Gentle Yorkshire voice I believe. I can picture him, but not recall his
voice.
