For some people living in busy cities the only glimpse of the countryside comes once a week, on a Sunday evening, on 91热爆 One. Adam Henson has decided to give three keen Countryfile viewers the chance to experience a little more than that. So, Annabelle, Liz and Terry are whisked out of London, trading their suits and snappy shoes for raincoats and wellies, in order to get up close and personal with rural life. Will a hard day鈥檚 work on Adam鈥檚 farm send them running for a cappuccino and a blow-dry, or inspire them to keep on the wellies for good?

England rugby champion turned MasterChef winner Phil Vickery is on a mission to create a feast to feed the hardworking Countryfile team at lunch. He ropes in John as his sous chef and together they prowl the stalls for the best of British cuisine. John prepares the kipper salad while Phil sizzles some sausages! Everyone enjoys a well-earned rest from the morning鈥檚 activities while they speculate on who the secret guest will be in the cricket match later.

Summer fayres were not the only time when people from both town and country were brought together. During the First World War thousands of men went away to fight and so the Women鈥檚 Land Army was established in order to keep Britain鈥檚 agriculture moving. Ellie meets historian Cherish Watton who explains how propaganda was used to entice city women out to farms. Once in the countryside they had to get stuck-in but were rewarded with liberating trouser uniforms and usually found themselves to be more than capable. Ellie is shown photos of Valerie Linda鈥檚 mother Dorothy who described her time working for the Land Army as 鈥渢he happiest days of her life鈥�.

What better way to end a peaceful and traditional summer fayre than with a high-adrenaline cricket match between the Countryfile presenting team and their celebrity guests?! Adam鈥檚 son Alfie is a keen player and so joins the home team but Phil Vickery and co. aren鈥檛 going to accept defeat lying down and have a surprise team member of their own. There are low balls, high balls and particularly bouncy balls but who will rein victorious? It all comes down to a face-off between Countryfile legend John Craven and the mighty brawn of Phil.
