JULES Hudson has given fans a glimpse into his latest project, revealing he has been out filming for a new series while visiting one of his favourite parts of the UK.
The Escape to the Country presenter, who lives in Herefordshire's Golden Valley, said he has been working on the programme's spin-off series, I Escaped to the Country, which catches up with people who previously appeared on the show after making the move to rural life.
Sharing an update, Jules explained that the work had taken him to Powys in mid-Wales, an area he described as one of his favourite places in Britain.
While there, he highlighted the beauty of the River Severn, which begins in the Cambrian Mountains before travelling for around 220 miles through the British countryside and eventually reaching the sea via the Severn Estuary.
"Well folks, we're escaping to the country today, in particular, we're making 'I Escaped to the Country', catching up with those who we've helped find their new rural dream homes and what a day it has been," he said.
"Not least because it has brought me to one of my favourite parts of the country. I'm in Powys in mid-Wales, and this is just one part of the great and mighty River Severn, the longest river in Great Britain.
"And it begins its course to the west in the Cambrian mountains, before finally snaking its way through 220 miles through some of the finest countryside I know before making its way into the sea, of course, in the Severn estuary.
"But the light today is perfect, the sound of the river is perfect, just look at that. If you're feeling a little bit stressed, and a little bit anxious about anything, feast your eyes on the water."
The 56-year-old is also known for presenting Springtime on the Farm on Channel 5. Last year he appeared in another television series, Coastal Adventures, which explored some of Britain's best-known waterfront locations.
Away from television, Hudson is well known for his passion for history, architecture and rural life. Trained as an archaeologist, he has built a career around celebrating Britain's heritage, countryside and historic landscapes.
The most recent episode of Escape to the Country featuring Hudson aired on October 20 and followed a couple hoping to swap London life for a quieter future in rural Kent.
