The Daily Telegraph seems to think that John Cushnie is still alive. Either that or they have found another John Cushnie who is also a gardening expert, which seems to be an odd coincidence.
This article was published by the Telegraph in July 2013, even though the gardener and popular panellist on Gardeners' Question Time died in 2010. It seems poor not to give some kind of explanation - the most likely being that it is a republished article from a long time ago. Incidentally, it is an excellent guide to growing figs.
