Percy Thrower
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Percy Thrower was a television presenter in the late 20th century, well known for hosting Gardeners' World, which he hosted until 1977.
By 1987, Nora Wicker was a fan of his work, but admitted he had not appeared on TV in ten years. (AUDIO: The World Tree)
Behind the scenes
In real life, Percy Thrower presented Gardeners' World from 1969 to 1976, not 1977, making Nora's statement of 'ten years' since he last hosted the show an approximation.
