MONTY Don couldn't help but leave fans scratching their heads after he popped on a baggy suit for a special TV appearance. The green-fingered star scrubbed up to host BBC2's RHS Chelsea Flower Show round-up programme, but viewers were unsure of his outfit. Monty, 68, ditched the scruffy trousers, open-necked shirt and braces he is known to wear on Gardeners' World for a navy suit and tie.
Unfortunately, however, it looked far too big. Fans were tickled by his getup and they found themselves comparing Monty to a "bus conductor". Some even wondered if it was secondhand.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter , one fan said: " Monty Don 's turned up dressed as a bus conductor." Another added: "Nice to see Monty Don supporting the local bring and buy sales with his choice of jacket!" A third wrote: "Oh sweet Monty Don is lovely, but he does not scrub up well. That Chelsea jacket is really bad.
" And a fourth even mused: "Monty Don's suit is quite literally all over him like a bad suit." Monty is well-loved by Gardeners' World fans and famed for his horticultural knowledge and writing. He is also a big fan of dogs, with his pets regularly appearing on the BBC show.
But sadly, Monty lost his pet mutt Nell - aka Nellie - to cancer in October last year . Earlier this month, Monty shared a touching tribute to Nell while pottering around in his own garden. The star, who still has dogs Ned and Patti , took to Instagram to share a picture of a pot filled with gorgeous purple tulips.
