Presenters Matt Baker and Charlotte Smith have visited the forest, which inspired the Winnie-The-Pooh books, and spent a day exploring all it has to offer.
Matt went on a bear hunt with Winnie-the-Pooh fanatic and local museum creator Neil Reed to learn about the life of writer AA Milne and the forest’s landmarks that feature in his stories.
