Gardeners turn to Today big beasts

It's not just politicians who dread being grilled by Radio 4's Today programme presenter John Humphrys , reports the Daily Telegraph. Gardeners in Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire are using recordings of his voice to frighten deer which have been eating their beetroot, raspberries and roses. Apparently human voices are more effective than alarms at deterring deer and gardeners have been leaving their radios tuned in to Radio 4. Whatever next? A Jim Naughtie scarecrow?
