After a short break, Sue will return to talk more personally, offering insights into her life and experiences.
Sue will reflect on her life and previous career, her journey to joining Gardeners’ World, and what it’s really like to be a TV presenter—plus the behind-the-scenes realities of featuring her own garden on the show.
