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 longest-standing presenter, working on the programme for more than 35 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?
On the Easter Sunday episode of Countryfile, Matt Baker and Margherita Taylor head to Bisterne Estate in Hampshire's Avon Valley, where farmland and water meadows provide habitats for lapwings and hares – two classic signs of spring. They meet farmers and conservationists working to restore these habitats for both species.
To herald the arrival of a new season, Matt Baker records the sounds of spring with a local sound artist and joins volunteers caring for the historic Harnham Water Meadows. Adam Henson restores a traditional hedgerow, in time for nesting season for the nearby birds.
Plus, author Robert Macfarlane shares an exclusive spring reading.
What was on BBC Countryfile last week?
Sean Fletcher and Anita Rani visited St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall after Storm Goretti, one of the most destructive storms to hit the county in decades. Hurricane-force winds ripped through the island, stripping away nearly 80% of its trees and leaving the tiny community of just 33 residents facing a huge clean-up. They joined the race to repair the damage, restore the landscape and reopen this iconic landmark to visitors.
Also in the programme, Datshiane Navanayagam investigated the rise of youth homelessness in rural Britain.
