Roy's interest in plant exploration has taken him round the world to countries such as Georgia, Chile, Iran, Turkey, New Zealand, Brazil, Ecuador, Japan, North America, South Africa, Malaya and China. He's been a member of expeditions to Nepal and Yunnan, China, and has published accounts of both in his books A Plantsman in Nepal and Travels in China. Old battered chairs line the walls. You sit in one closest to the door. Nobody notice me, please. Nobody does. The 50 or so other kids are too busy with their chat, their excitement, their … what’s that thing I don’t recognise from normal school? Oh yes, their happiness. K: There is only one truth. There is not Muslim truth and Christian truth, or Hindu or Buddhist; there is only truth. Would you agree or see that truth has no path? – it’s not Christian path, Hindu path or communist path. So it’s a pathless land. If truth was fixed, then there is a path to it. But it’s a living thing; you can’t say… – you follow? It’s a living thing, and each one interprets it in his own… according to his own conditioning. They generally agree truth is universal. Any obviously thinking man does. But I’ve been brought up… suppose one has been brought up as a Christian; you translate that truth according to your… what you have been programmed to. You see, the question really is whether one can be free of this conditioning totally and have a brain, have a mind that is completely free from all program; then there is a different state altogether.

We are having a conversation now, a dialogue, in which both of us are sharing. We talk freely – I hope – inquire, investigate, therefore there is no system in that; both of us are seriously concerned about something and we begin to have a dialogue about it: why human beings throughout the world live in conflict. Why should I have a system about that? And whether we can live without conflict. Because conflict is destroying the world, not only in personal relationship but with nature, with other human beings. So is it possible to live without conflict? Is it possible to live a life of great – if I can use that word which has been so spoiled – love? And be free of suffering. This is… why should we have a system of inquiry into that? But in inquiring we discover a great many things. If we are both attentive, watchful, we discover the most fantastic and real things. And the perception of that brings us together; there is no “you” and “me”: perception.

This Friday, Robson’s last broadcast from the chair of GQT, as it is fondly abbreviated, will go out on Radio 4. The 72-year-old is stepping down from the hallowed chair to be replaced by newsreader Kathy Clugston. He married Mary Armstrong in 1976, but they divorced in 1984. They have a son and daughter. He married Annette Steinhilber in 1988. They have a son and two daughters, one grandson and three granddaughters. K: No, no. I’ve always said there is no authority, including myself. I am not your leader, guru and all that nonsense. I really mean it. For me that is an abomination; to me that is the original sin (laughs), if I can so put it. Each man must be a light to himself. Right? Because freedom is necessary: freedom from one’s conditioning, freedom from all the travail that is part of our consciousness. Jim Walker comments, “It has been a huge privilege to serve as Chair of Cumbria Tourism’s Executive Board during the last 3 years. The pandemic has required us to dramatically strengthen our work to support our members during one of the most difficult periods of the organisation’s history.In 2011, he was accused of a conflict of interest by anti-nuclear protesters opposed to a second generation of nuclear power plants and the possible siting of a high-level waste dump in the Lake District. [4] Robson is the chairman of the Cumbria Tourism organisation, but at the same time is a part owner of Osprey Communications, a PR firm that is advisor to the West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership. He is also a Deputy Lieutenant of Cumbria. [5] Wainwright, who died in 1991, wrote more than 50 books, including seven Lakeland pictorial guides, of which only a handful are left in print.

Popular As ER: I follow you up to there, but doesn’t that lead us to a paradox, that the people who listen to you, who come to this school, who listen to you in India or California, do they not regard you as a signpost in a pathless land? There are scores of glossy guides to the Lakes, but not one has come close to Wainwright in terms of beauty, simplicity and elegance of presentation."

Another EastEnders star, Jake Wood, described Scher as “this whirlwind of energy … I’d never met anybody with that drive. I was a bit intimidated, to be honest.” Panellists include Matthew Wilson, Chris Beardshaw, Matthew Biggs, Bob Flowerdew, Pippa Greenwood, Bunny Guinness, Anne Swithinbank, James Wong and Christine Walkden. For his successor he has nothing but the warmest praise: “She’s a charming lady with a wonderful voice, consummate broadcaster and a great sense of humour”. But the man who has spent decades clipping his panellists like so many wayward roses can’t resist adding: “I will keep listening. I’ve told Kathy that I will and I will be honest with her.” I have had a few pinch-me moments since I started at Radio 4, but this beats them all. Gardeners' Question Time is one of the pillars of Radio 4 - I feel honoured and excited — Kathy ClugstonTen years later he went on holiday to the Lake District and admitted he immediately fell in love with the area. A year or so ago he says he was taken out for lunch by a BBC head honcho who politely requested Robson provide as much notice as possible when he decided to call it a day. “I went home, thought about it and said to them ‘my contract is up in 18 months. Why don’t I give you 18 months notice?’” K: Oh, long ago. As a… when I… It meant nothing, really, to me, whether to be a Hindu or a Muslim or, you know, a Christian. I mean, these are all… human brains have been programmed, like computers. It’s so quiet! Her voice has a sweet Irish lilt. “Hello everybody and welcome. Our inspiration for this term is Dr Martin Luther King and our word of the week is strength.” You notice “strength” on a card on a wall. “We can show strength in many different ways, but is it always a positive thing? I look forward to your interpretations and improvisations. Now, is anyone new this evening?”
