Countryfile: Winter Special

Series 956, episode 0

Matt visits Tom and Kay Hutchinson, currently in the grip of winter on their hill farm in Teesdale and unlikely film stars in the documentary Addicted to Sheep. Ellie looks at winter migration in Gloucestershire. At Slimbridge Wetlands Centre she prepares dinner for more than one thousand over-wintering birds! She also gets cheek to beak with some greylag geese in flight. John goes for a woodland walk in Cumbria with two hybrid wolves and learns how they are perfectly adapted for winter, with webbed feet and hollow fur fibres like a polar bear, and that they are highly intelligent and social animals worthy of our respect. Sean tries his hand at winter cod fishing off the wild North Yorkshire coast. And Adam's on North Ronaldsay in Orkney, where their rare seaweed-eating sheep are under threat. Years ago he visited with his dad to help save the North Ronaldsay breed from extinction - but wild winter storms have caused further setbacks
