Countryfile favourite Adam Henson has given fans an update on his health from his hospital bed after undergoing surgery on his hip.
The farmer, 56, opened up to fans on his show as he revealed that he had been struggling with pain and had found it particularly tough during the autumn.
After it had begun to affect his everyday life, Adam decided to have the surgery.
In a video showing him in a hospital bed, Adam said: "It’s now been pretty much 12 hours since I had my hip resurfacing operation.
"The feeling in my legs and waist have all come back now, pretty much my right leg, which is the leg I had done, is still a bit tingly and a bit weird.
"I’ve never really had surgery quite like this before, it does make me feel for all those people that have gone through things an awful lot worse."
Explaining that his recovery had been slower and painful than he had believed it would be, he admitted that he was "very lucky" that he had a strong team on the farm.
He said: "I’m very lucky to have a strong team on the farm who can do all the work. In three or four weeks' time, hopefully, I’ll be back out and about,” he said from his home."
Earlier this year, Countryfile was branded "pure filth" after a cheeky segment featuring Strictly star Hama Yassin.
The episode saw presenter Hamza Yassin go in search of red deer fawns in the Scottish Highlands as he trekked through the hills to find the elusive animal.
After seeing clues such as fallen antlers, Hamza managed to find an entire herd. He was left stunned as a young stag mounted a female in front of him.
The filmmaker said: "There’s the young stag, he’s just mounting a female. That’s amazing.
"It’s not the time of year, it’s the middle of summer. Maybe he is just practicing."
The episode went on to show three more scenes with animals mating. Tom Hartwell filmed two bees mating in a bee hotel, while two sets of birds were seen getting raunchy near the end of the show.
Presenter Richard Taylor-Jones said: "The male has just got on top of the female, he’s pecked her by the back of the head, pulled her head up, and that’s grey partridge mating.
"I have never seen that before!"
Stunned fans took to Twitter, with one writing: "I reckon thats four sex scenes this week! Pure filth!!"
Another fan wrote: "What is going on in #Countryfile so much mating," while a third tweeted: "Blimey sex and violence all within 15 mins #countryfile."
