The rise and fall of gardeningTV is perfectly illustrated by the fate of Charlie Dimmock. Best known for the BBC garden makeover show Ground Force, which at its peak attracted 12m viewers and had an eight-year run that finished last year, Dimmock is no longer a regular on our screens. But the former water garden centre manager, who turned 40 last month, is still busy with a range of lower-key projects. She was giving out prizes to Barchester Care Homes' best gardens last week and will be opening a garden centre in Dublin next week. Then Dimmock sets sail with Chris Beard-shaw, Stefan Buczaki and John Negus onboard Saga Ruby to the Caribbean, on a cruise that costs a minimum of ￡2,811 a person.
