2020 | Britain's Wildest Weather
Footage of the most extreme weather conditions in the UK over the past year, from the worst floods in a decade and a freak landslide in Fife, to an account of being in a house when it is struck by lightning. The programme also explains the scientific reasons behind the wildfire that destroyed one of the UK's most precious nature reserves, as well as a look back at record-breaking days of both heat and rain.

Farming in the UK | Countryfile
Adam Henson is on his farm in the Cotswolds, looking at how his practice of being more nature-friendly, by limiting the chemicals he uses on his farm, is not without its challenges, amongst which are his battles with black grass. And Tom Heap asks whether scaling up and becoming a so-called 'megafarm' is the way forward for some farmers to survive.
