What a joy to be back in the garden for another episode of Pottering, this time with the wonderful Jo Brand. I know her very well from our time together on Bake Off: An Extra Slice, but you may perhaps know her as a stand-up legend, the mind behind Getting On, and the author of numerous best-sellers.

 In our chat we cover growing up in the countryside, the spookiest of sleepovers, and the toxicity of travel vloggers. We also try our hand at window boxes; very different approaches and very different results.

Now, help yourself to a glass of elderflower cordial, dust off your trusty trowel, and join us for a spot of pottering.
