Presenters of Countryfile, Charlotte Smith and Matt Baker, were both given security clearance to explore the military training base. 

In the programme, they explore how the Ministry of Defence maintain a balance between military training, farming and conservation.

Matt will be exploring the chalk river, while Charlotte will take a look at the survival of endangered flora and fauna alongside the military vehicles.
