Countryfile host distracts fans as viewers admit 'it's hard to concentrate'

Countryfile viewers couldn't help but comment on weather presenter Ben Rich's outfit as he shared an update on the predicted rainfall for the week ahead.

Host Adam Henson handed over to Ben after spending the episode sharing his experience of lambing season.

Ben began: "For some of us this weekend has brought some warmth to the end of April, which temperature-wise has been pretty much average overall."

However, viewers found it "hard to concentrate" on the weather due to Ben's red checked shirt, which he paired with dark blue jeans and a black belt.

One BBC viewer praised: "The great Ben Rich going the full check shirt, buttons undone, jeans loses a point for not rolling up the sleeves but a fine showing. #countryfile #CasualWeatherperson."

"'BBC weather bod, you're covering #countryfile. Make sure you dress like you're going line dancing afterwards,'" another tweeted.

A third added: "It's hard to concentrate on the weather charts #Countryfile," while a fourth noted: "Ben Rich superb attire...its a yes from me and through to the next round!#countryfile."

Another wrote: "Check shirt. All is good with the world again. #countryfile," and someone else said: "The contrasting bright buttons really works too, not just a check shirt, but a nice check shirt #CountryFile."

In Sunday's lambing special, Charlotte Smith visited a farm in the Outer Hebrides during lambing season while Paralympic athlete Sammi Kinghorn visited her family farm in the Scottish borders.

The Paralympian opened up on the accident that caused her paralysis, which took place on the family farm while reflecting on her childhood and her love for animals.

Elsewhere, Countryfile viewers were shown how wool fleeces may be the secret ingredient to creating the UK's next great wine.

Last week, the BBC show aired a royal special episode which focussed on King Charles' love for the countryside ahead of his Coronation.

Charlotte met with Elizabeth Buchanan, the former King's advisor on agriculture worked as his private secretary from 2005 to 2008.

Elizabeth admitted: "It was the hardest, most demanding job I have ever done in my life because he works so hard, up until 10 it's papers, papers, papers, 10 it kicks off publicly. Then it's dinner and after that, he's back at his desk...it's constant work and all of it is for other people."
