Peak District

Countryfile is in the Peak District where John Craven is on the set of the BBC drama, The Village. He gets behind the scenes to meet the cast and explores the impact filming has had on the real village of Hayfield. He also reveals an unusual and exciting archaeological treasure discovered in the heart of Dovedale. Adam Henson tries to get to the bottom of an age-old problem with sheep. Helen Skelton dons her walking boots to discover the intriguing links between the Peak District and the British Raj - from dyeing cloth to the introduction of sandals. She also meets a local photographer to give her some tips on how to take the perfect animal shot. A new report says that the shooting industry is worth more than £2 billion to the UK every year. Tom Heap investigates claims that its contribution to the British economy and the countryside goes largely unrecognised.
