One of the BBC's most popular programmes, Countryfile airs weekly on BBC One and reports on rural, agricultural and environmental issues in the UK.

Launched in 1988, Countryfile replaced the long-running show Farming with the aim of covering a broader view of the countryside. John Craven is the show's most long-standing presenter, working on the programme for more than 30 years after joining the show in 1989.

Regular presenters also include Matt Baker, Anita Rani, Tom Heap and Adam Henson. Plus, Sean Fletcher, Hamza Yassin, Joe Crowley, Charlotte Smith, Margherita Taylor, Vick Hope and Steve Brown also appear on the show.

Here is our weekly TV guide to Countryfile, including what's coming up on the show and what time it airs on BBC One.

What is on BBC Countryfile this week?

The summer solstice is the official start of the season, and Countryfile is heading to the seaside to celebrate. Matt Baker and Sammi Kinghorn are in and around the east Devon resort of Seaton, finding out how coastal life is shifting with the times.

Matt returns to Seaton Wetlands, where he helped build a nesting wall for sand martins 12 years ago. He’s checking in on its progress and helping ring the latest arrivals. Meanwhile, Sammi finds out how the site is managed to support the many birds that live and stop over there.

A fourth-generation fisherman shares how his family’s way of life has adapted since their local waters became a protected area, before Matt explores what that has meant for local marine life. Back on dry land, Sammi gets hands-on with the traditional craft of wheelwrighting - a skill that kept the countryside moving and still survives today.

Down on his farm in the Cotswolds, Adam Henson has got his hands full with a group of boisterous young animals getting ready to leave the herd.
