Countryfile Isle of Wight Feature This Sunday

Remember we mentioned a couple of weeks ago that Countryfile were filming on the Isle of Wight?

Unlike other programmes that can take months before they appear on our screens after filming, post-production must be fast at Countryfile, as this Sunday’s programme will feature the Isle of Wight.

The programme info explains that Matt Baker explores the locations where a real Warrior war horse was raised, trained and died and became a legend in the process.

Meanwhile Ellie Harrison Ellie tries her hand at winter surfing, testing out an original 50-year-old surfboard; and, two days before Valentine’s Day, Matt meets the singles hoping to find love on a speed-date walk.

Wight Surf History
Make sure you check out the Wight Surf History website, where they have a great write up of the time they spent with the Countryfile team.

Many thanks for use of one of their photos from the day.

Sunday at 7pm
The programme is aired on Sunday evening at 7pm on BBC One.

From memory the weather was pretty good when they filmed so the Island should look spectacular on our screens.
