Countryfile

County Durham (29x17)

Uitzenddatum: Apr 23, 2017

Countryfile is in County Durham, and Matt is on his old home turf, showing us how to make panackelty, a traditional north eastern dish. He gets veg from prize-winning allotments and meat from a local farm and cooks it all up with the locals. Ellie is a few miles away in the heart of Weardale meeting the designer whose passion for rescuing sheep has spun out into a sideline making high-end felt goods. She also takes a trip along one of the most beautiful stretches of the River Tees, taking in the stunning High Force and Low Force waterfalls, discovering its wildlife and getting a drenching as she throws herself headlong into it. Sean is in Stockton, where he meets a Scout troop involved in all sorts of projects to encourage wildlife. And he witnesses them renewing their Scout's Promise - something traditionally done on St George's day. Tom asks if we are in the midst of a fly-tipping epidemic and what can be done to stamp it out. And at the start of British Beef Week, Adam is meeting the farmers raising their cattle on nothing but fresh grass all year round.
