    274. A walk in Roald Dahl country with environmental campaigner Guy Shrubsole

    Plodcast host Fergus walks with campaigner Guy Shrubsole in the Chilterns' woodlands that inspired Roald Dahl's famous children's book: Danny Champion of the World. And rather like Roald Dahl's characters, Guy uses the issue of pheasant shooting to challenge conventional ideas of how land is owned and managed in Britain today and suggests that things need to change if our wildlife and wild habitats are to survive. Guy's book, The Lie of the Land is out now and is published by William Collins.

    Sound Escape 196. Be soothed by the rush and fall of waves on a rocky coast in Wales

    As the sun is setting over the Welsh coast, we’re sitting above a cleft in the cliffs. Rhythmically, the waves rush and recede in this open-roofed cave. The mist throws up the scent of salt and cold water. As the daylight fades, a blackbird scolds us to go home to bed. BBC Countryfile Magazine's Sound Escapes are a weekly audio postcard from the countryside to help you relax and transport you somewhere beautiful, wherever you happen to be. Recorded and introduced by Hannah Tribe. Email the Plodcast team – and send your sound recordings of the countryside – to: theplodcast@countryfile.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    273. Discover how Empire shaped the British countryside with historian Corinne Fowler

    Take a walk though the leafy suburbs of south Birmingham with historian Corinne Fowler. Corinne's studies of how the British Empire impacted rural Britain and her report into how some National Trust properties are linked to slavery drew a chorus of protest from some quarters. Here she explains her work to Plodcast host Fergus Collins and reveals why an honest understanding of rural history is so important. Corinne's book, Our Island Stories: Country Walks Through Colonial Britain is published by Allen Lane The Countryfile Magazine Plodcast is the Publishers Podcast Awards Special Interest Podcast of the Year 2024 and the PPA Podcast of the Year 2022.

    Sound Escape 195. Hear the eerie bellows of red deer stags during the autumn rut

    It's a sound that seems more attuned to the uplands of the north and west: the deep haunting bellows of red deer. But we're on the edge of London, among the heaths and woods of Richmond Park. With a backdrop of rose-ringed parakeet chatter, it's a curious blend of wild and exotic.

    Sound Escape 194. Enjoy the beguiling patterns of rainfall in a back garden

    Forbidding sheets of rain and flooding mean that outdoor adventures must be postponed until tomorrow. But there's something cosy and deeply comforting about being in the dry, listening to the torrent outside. And as you listen, the downpour eases and birds begin to sing with gratitude.

    271. A quest to go fishing on a lake where anglers are rarely allowed

    We've gone fishing! The Plodcast team of Fergus, Hannah, Jack and Lewis plus angler-writer Kevin Parr are given a unique opportunity to spend a day fishing at at lake where anglers are seldom allowed. Sutton Bingham Reservoir is a vast body of water just south of Yeovil in Somerset and is only usually open to flyfishers going after trout. So what else lives beneath the waves? Under Kevin's mentorship, the team enjoy an extraordinary day... Listen on for magic and drama. Huge thanks to Wessex Water and Rich the ranger for allowing us access to Sutton Bingham Reservoir. To find out more about fishing at the reservoir, visit: www.wessexwater.co.uk/visit-and-learn/fishing-at-sutton-bingham-reservoir Also to the Angling Trust for granting day rod licences to the team.

    Sound Escape 193. Sit beside a waterfall in a once-bustling landscape reclaimed by nature

    Walking in a wide vale of crumbling relics of a long-lost industrial age, you stumble across a small stream, caught in the act of tumbling over a waterfall. For a moment there is mesmerising movement and sound, then the water disappears down the brackeny slope.
