The calendar, featuring 12 photographs chosen from 10,000 entries received by Countryfile, will have a print run of 25,000. However, there will be a reprint if necessary, according to Wind-sor Print Production sales consultant Zo Fillery.

Its good to be involved with the calendar again this year. We put in a bid and were narrowed down to three companies but we got it because of previous experience, said Fillery, who oversaw production of last years calendar at fellow Tonbridge firm P1 Print.

In a forthcoming Countryfile programme, presenter John Craven will visit the 20-staff company and Children in Needs Pudsey will start its five-colour Heidelberg Speedmaster.

Graham Post, marketing consultant for the calendars designer The Art of Design, was confident that the firm would achieve the best results.
