Countryfile goes down to the woods in West Sussex.

Ellie Harrison spends the day with expert woodsman Ben Law, and looks back at some memorable moments from past programmes exploring our forests, ancient and modern.

Ben first captured our imagination when he appeared on national television building his own woodland retreat. A decade on, Ellie gets to grips with Ben's latest project, eco-caravans, and gets a glimpse of some of the creatures that share his home in Prickly Nut Wood.

The programme also looks back at Julia Bradbury's visit to England's largest, manmade forest, which she discovers is a real haven for wildlife.

Meanwhile, Matt Baker takes on Devon's best in the Blackdown Hills, trying his hand at pleaching, a traditional way of hedging with growing trees.

And John Craven discovers the secrets of the Celtic rain forest deep in the heart of Snowdonia, among other highlights.
