A special edition of Countryfile celebrating the Great British summer.

A special edition of Countryfile celebrating the Great British summer. Matt Baker travels along the south Wales coast, while Naomi Wilkinson punts along the River Cam in Cambridge.

Summer has arrived, and the landscape is in full bloom. It's the perfect time to get out and enjoy the countryside in all its glory. And in a special programme, Countryfile are cooling down by the water's edge in celebration of our Great British summer.

Matt is travelling along the coastline of south Wales with Sam Evans and Shauna Guinn, who are known as the first ladies of barbeque, sourcing the best cuts of meat for their summer beach party.

Naomi Wilkinson is enjoying a summer evening punt along the River Cam in Cambridge, where she is joined by Iain Webb from the Wildlife Trust on the lookout for feeding frenzy of bats.

Also in the programme, John Craven is on the river Waveney in Suffolk bringing in the summertime bulrush harvest for the first time in more than 50 years.

Sean Fletcher is getting on his bike and heading off the beaten track along the beautiful Pembrokeshire coastline to enjoy a spot of wild camping.

And Adam is in Northern Ireland, where the summer months for one farmer mean taking to the water with his cattle.
