Countryfile viewers slam latest episode for segment which left them asking 'Is this Top Gear?'


Viewers slammed yesterdays episode of Countryfile which saw Matt Baker and Anita Rani driving through the Lake District. Some jokingly asked whether it was Countryfile or Top Gear.

The routes famously feature some of the most challenging roads in the country - though with stunning views - as they narrowly wind up and down steep single tracks. This comes a month after viewers slammed a seperate episode for focusing on Devon and Cornwall locals' struggles finding an NHS dentist 'Previously the programme has produced diverse films including shortfalls in Special Education Needs provision and the difficulties recruiting Midwifery staff in rural areas.'
