Hi hope someone out there can help - my dad had an allotment a few years ago that had a couple of gooseberry bushes - these gooseberries were huge, pink and sweet but he cant remember the name of them - can anyone help out at all as i would like to try to grow these on my allotment.

My red ones are Whinhams Industry and are great straight off the plant when fully ripe but they are deeper than pink.
