Episode notes

Burnham-on-Crouch is home to one of the first floating lifeboat stations.

The RNLI have a base in Burnham yacht marina, with volunteers called out to all sorts of shouts from people in difficulty along the Essex coast as well as inland along the River Crouch.

Volunteers Steve Harris and Nathaniel Head showed Owen Ward around the rare type of lifeboat house that's unique on the Essex coastline.
