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?
In this week's episode, Charlotte Smith and Joe Crowley are in Lincolnshire to mark 50 years of the Viking Way, a long-distance footpath that winds through some of England’s lesser-trodden countryside. They explore the route’s rich tapestry of history, from its Norse-inspired name to the ancient tracks and market towns it connects. They uncover evidence of Viking settlers, meet the volunteers who maintain the route, visit the Ramblers' Church and investigate efforts to protect water voles.
Meanwhile, Adam Henson explores high-tech strawberry farming, and John Craven launches Countryfile's annual photographic competition.
