Series 7: 7. Thornwood Springs, Essex - Rudd
Paul, Bob and Ted travel a short distance to Thornwood Springs Fishery in Essex, a complex of three lakes on the edges of Epping Forest, in search of a big rudd - although there's also the chance of a trout in the waters.\n\nLater, they pull up at a churchyard, and Bob reveals they are ‘champing’ – camping overnight in a church, in this case St Nicholas’s in the village of Berden.
