Countryfile is in a festive mood, helping with the preparations for a very special seasonal celebration deep in rural Warwickshire. Matt Baker, Julia Bradbury and John Craven meet up with Ellie Harrison and Tom Heap at Ragley Hall, the ancestral seat of the Marquess of Hertford. At this time of year the family are busy decking the halls, ready to hold a party for the 100-plus staff that help keep the estate running all year round. Julia finds out more about the family, one of Britain's oldest, and lends a hand decorating one of their most treasured paintings. Matt is on the farm helping move the sheep from the parklands to their winter housing, while Ellie meets the people who work at Ragley all year round. Tom is at the festive shoot, investigating why so many of our stately homes have gone into decline and discovering how Ragley has bucked the trend. And, as everyone gathers for the celebrations, John joins the Alcester Male Voice Choir to get the party started with a rousing chorus of Deck the Halls! In the Cotswolds, Christmas is a busy time for Adam Henson as he takes on more work to make sure workers on the farm get a Christmas break. And he is keen to show off his latest pride and joy - rare breed turkeys that are definitely not on the festive menu. He also finds out why eating geese could help secure the future of some of our rarest breeds.
