Alan Titchmarsh's three-word message as he makes career announcement

On Wednesday's episode of BBC Breakfast, Alan Titchmarsh unveiled some thrilling news about his latest endeavour.

The renowned gardening expert and broadcaster, 75, has collaborated with celebrated composer Debbie Wiseman to craft a delightful new Christmas album titled Jack Frost - A Winter Story.

During his appearance on the show this Wednesday, Alan had a concise message for BBC Breakfast's weather expert Carol Kirkwood as he said: "Carol, thank you!"

He elaborated on his gratitude, saying: "I'm so grateful to Carol, we're very grateful to Carol for bringing frost [weather]. Our launch day is Friday, it comes out on Friday, the album, and that's the coldest day of the year so far... Carol, thank you!"

To which presenter Nina Warhurst light-heartedly remarked: "She likes to do that for all of our guests!", reports the Express.

Debbie, the incredible composer behind the new album, shared insights into their creative process explaining: "We recorded it in May", adding: "We put together Alan's story, which he sent me by email one day and just popped on my email - Jack Frost.

"I popped it on the piano and set it to music, it happened so naturally the way the words and music flowed together. I was able to set his lovely magical story to music, it was such a treat!"

Discussing the album's inspiration, Alan revealed: "I come from a Yorkshire childhood, when I was young, we didn't have central heating then and the ice would form on the inside of your window, you'd scratch it off, and you'd look out on a landscape very much like this one behind us, and it had all been transformed overnight, we just wanted to make a family tale for Christmas all about the magic of Jack Frost," reports the Express.
