BBC One - Countryfile Spring Diaries, Series 4, Episode 2

The team see the trauma caused to wildlife by marine litter.

Margherita Taylor sees the injuries that plastic litter can cause to British sea life, and Paul Martin gets tips to keep summer pots in flower all season long.

Today, John Craven stops off at Broadway Tower in Worcestershire, which was designed by Capability Brown and has unparalleled views across 16 counties.

Margherita Taylor investigates the issue of litter in our oceans, with 5,000 pieces of plastic pollution to be found per mile on British beaches. Paul Martin is at Hidcote Arts and Crafts garden in Gloucestershire, where he picks up some tips on how to keep container plants packed with colour and interest for the summer months. Jules Hudson is in Scotland meeting veterans who are coping with post-traumatic stress disorder. The Bravehound charity run by Fiona McDonald provides ex-soldiers with specially trained dogs to help them with everything from fetching their medication to waking them from the nightmares they suffer. 

Steve Brown is on the trail of a deadly new disease called RDH2, which can kill our pet rabbits. There is no cure, and the virus has also been cutting a swathe through wild rabbit populations, which are down by 60 per cent. John also reveals the best places in the UK to see spring flowers, and Tom Heap investigates the reasons why rural areas see slower response times when they call the fire brigade.
