Mud, mud, glorious mud. There’s nothing quite like for bringing back memories.
We dusted off this selection of Echo archive photos which have one thing in common - the people in the pictures were drenched in mud.
From the Radio 1 Big Weekend in 2005 to rugby players in action in 2014, it’s a gallery of gunge.
Enjoy the trip back in time.
