  • Emma Willis
    Oct 8 2026
    Fresh from the Strictly ballroom and as fabulous as ever, it was an absolute treat to welcome my dear friend and Cooking With The Stars co-host, Emma Willis into the garden! 🌻From NHS maternity wards to the Big Brother house, Emma really has done it all, so there was plenty to chat about. We covered the thrills of live television, the importance of a good bin and the undeniable power of a decent pair of Crocs, with a little sprinkling of glitterball gossip along the way, of course! 🪩✨ Now, pop the Parmigiana in the oven, pause your Paso Doble practice, and come Pottering with me. 🍆🪴 🎧 Watch on YouTube and Spotify, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

  • The Reverend Richard Coles
    Oct 1 2026
    This week, dear listeners, I was joined in the garden by writer, broadcaster, musician and all-round delight, the Reverend Richard Coles! 🌿 You may know Richard from his hugely successful books, as one half of The Communards, or from his many TV and radio appearances, including, of course, a successful stint in the jungle and a perhaps slightly less successful turn in the Strictly ballroom. Richard and I discovered we have plenty of shared eccentricities, so it was an absolute joy chatting about everything from childhood dreams of silk-lined cloaks and our mutual appreciation of the English language, to PJs (pyjamas and private jets). So, don your kaftan, take a brief pause from your funeral planning, and join “Rev Rich” and me in the garden for some Pottering. 🪴 Watch on YouTube and Spotify, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Ranvir Singh
    Sep 24 2026
    This week, I am joined in the garden by the wonderful Ranvir Singh! 🪴 You’ll know Ranvir from Good Morning Britain and beyond, and it was an absolute pleasure to swap the television studio for the slightly calmer surroundings of the garden for a spot of Pottering. We chat about her incredible trip to the Galápagos Islands, from blue-footed boobies to shark tales! Ranvir also takes us back to where her broadcasting career began, we discover a delightful shared connection to Lancashire, and we hear all about taking on ITV’s The Box. Very much looking forward to that one. 🦈 So, grab your binoculars, tell the builders next door to take a break and come Pottering with us. 🌿 🎧 Watch on YouTube and Spotify, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.
