MONTY Don has been blasted by fans after he appeared to endanger one of his co-stars on a recent episode of Gardeners’ World.
The TV star came under fire from fans that were left concerned by his actions and felt they would fall foul of BBC Health and Safety regulations.
Monty Don has been criticised by fans
One fan was left unimpressed by the recent Gardeners’ World
Monty was demonstrating how to use hedge cutters which saw him actively waving and moving around as he showed how best to trim a hedge.
But the presenter’s adorable pooches were located right behind him and one fan was left concerned for their welfare.
Commenting underneath a post from the official Gardeners World account, the unimpressed fan stated: “I know I won’t be the only one to comment on this, but I was unimpressed by the segment on hedge trimming.
“I thought the BBC Health and Safety brigade would have been all over it? Monty was using the hedge cutter whilst the dog was behind him.
“I imagined all kinds of catastrophic accidents happening. Equipment like this should really not be used around children or animals.”
However, they did then add: “Otherwise, nice programme!! Loved the garden that Carol visited.”
Monty has three dogs in total: a Yorkshire terrier named Patti and two golden retrievers named Nell and Ned.
Recently Monty opened up about his lifelong love for dogs, he wrote on his website: “I have lived with dogs all my life and so it is absolutely natural to me that wherever I am in the garden I should be accompanied by a dog or two. It is their garden as much as mine or any other members of the family.”
The concern from fans come just after Monty himself was left issuing a warning over an Instagram scam.
Alongside his warning was a cute picture of his beloved dog Ned, who was comfortably curled up in his bed.
He captioned the post: “Putting on one’s best face … By the way it has been brought to my attention that there are fake Monty Don accounts out there. Ignore or report them. This is the only ( public) one( and I never accept followers on the private account that I do not personally know).”
Monty often shares his dogs online
