Anyone can go into the countryside, you can drive, walk, cycle, get a bus or train, anyone of any race can visit the countryside.
No wonder more and more people are turning against the bbc.

Back in the early 1980's I helped to take a group (about 40) of inner-city Halifax, Muslim kids for a day out walking up the hills to the moors with a break at the topmost pub's beer-garden for them to eat sandwiches, purchase (soft) drinks - so paying our way - and the licensee was most impressed with their behaviour and how tidy we left the site. In fact he wrote to the school to say so.
The girls, of course, turned up in floaty shalwar-kmeeze and sandals, so lots of grumbles, but they all - ALL - enjoyed the experience and knew that the countryside was theirs to enjoy and respect. I'm willing to bet that almost every child gets this sort of opportunity (especially in the last week of the Summer terms) so any prohibition and hesitation has to be manufactured by the minority communities as yet another source of discord.

Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones is a Farmer in Devon. He has been reported to to the police more than once because passers by believe he is committing a crime on his farm. They think he is stealing, or trespassing, or about to vandalise. His trading name is The Black Farmer. He was interviewed by the police on three separate occasions. How many white farmers have had the same experience just by going about their own business on their own property?
//Africa has glorious countryside in many areas. India has vast areas of magnificent greenery. Diversity of nature is not confined to the UK. The BBC continues to rake the embers hopeful to fan a flame of racism.//
Countryfile deals exclusively with matters concerning the British countryside. Diversity outside this country is irrelevant in regards to the programme in question.
The outcry seen on this thread is exactly why topics like this need to be addressed on television. Stop getting so triggered over one single report on a weekly show. It's a big diverse world out there, the Beeb has to provide a service that incorporates everyone, whether you folk like it or not.

Why? Is black now a qualification? Would a farmer get away with calling himself "The White Farmer", or could he expect to get his barns burned down? Are there any white farmers in the African or Asian countries that call themselves such on their company signage? Answers on a pin head to.....

Springwatch, a BBC programme, axed Martin Hughes-Games so that they could employ Gillian Burke.
There was such an outcry from Martin's adoring public that the BBC had to re-employ him, but it was in a much reduced role - quite a blow for a person who relies on full-time employment from being a television presenter.
The BBC didn't care, as long as they were able to get a black face on one of their programmes.

ummmm, I've read interviews with Martin Hughes-Games and seen him on television, talking about the subject.
The BBC's intentions were perfectly clear to all and having worked for them, I know what a bunch of ageist, sexist luvvies they are!
How long have you been waiting for my avatar to turn up, so that you could have some trumped-up excuse to have yet another pathetic go at me?
Is that the best you could come up with?
