BBC Countryfile fans issue complaint as John Craven announces show feature comeback
John Craven made an announcement on this evening's Countryfile, but fans of the BBC show were less than impressed. The presenter urged fans at home to get involved but instead they decided to rant on social media.
The BBC show announced that the 2024 Countryfile Photographic Competition is now open for entries. Presenter John Craven explained: "This year's theme is 'natural wonders' and we want you to capture the wild side of our countryside in all its glory."
He added: "Whether it's a magical moment of wildlife or a captivating landscape, whatever it is, we want to see your interpretation of what a national wonder really is."
John said the Countryfile team would be joined by a celebrity judge to choose the winning 12 photos to appear in the 2025 calendar, with proceeds from sales going to Children In Need.
