County Down

Charlotte Smith is in County Down, Northern Ireland, catching up with the dairy farming Lilburn family after our last visit in June.

The pressure is on for them – Richard is up against the weather to get his harvest done. Will the rain scupper his plans for his pea crop? Charlotte also hits the road with Pamela to meet local suppliers providing for the new farm shop, and there’s some taste-testing to do on bakes – good news for the three Lilburn children.

We also meet the first two teams, England and Wales, vying for glory in this year’s One Man and His Dog competition, while Adam Henson starts his quest to find Countryfile’s young countryside champion of the year when he visits a teenager carrying on the family farm after his father’s untimely death. And get ready to ramble as Matt Baker meets brother and sister Ailsa and Finn, who will inspire everyone to get outdoors and raise money for Children in Need in this year’s Countryfile ramble.
