Being real, I'd probably head to a Currys near a supermarket. Both are going to have solid shutters and loading bays. Food in the supermarkets, generator to power the fridges in the Currys, microwaves and kettles there, tvs to pass the time with films. That's all if I was caught short in my local town. Plenty of risks involved though if someone ramped through the shutters or we couldn't get to supplies due to loads of zombies.
How would you survive the zombie apocalypse?

Sadly, I think populated areas and retail parks are a complete no go. Perhaps to stock up, but even those quickly descend into public anarchy and most will die at the hands of other humans trying to protect their families and survive.
If I had to retail park it would be in this order:
Supermarket
Argos
B&Q
Currys

Until you realise you were mistaken and they aren't TWD zombies, they're Aftermath ones

I would survive by eating brains. Braaiinnnnnsssss.
Oh wait...
Oh wait...
I almost guarantee you wouldn't - the instinct to survive is far stronger than a person tends to believe, while I can't speak for you specifically from my experience most hang onto the smallest glimmer of hope for a very long time - even when they started out of your opinion.
EDIT: On the flipside many aren't adapted to survive and wouldn't make it very long.

Simple, pack up and head to the local castle, its designed to keep a determined army with seige artillery out so a few shambling zombies wont be an issue.
Loot weapons from the local gunshop, stock up on food and supplies and live a happy existence perpetuated by iron hard rules on letting potentially infected in- leave or take a bullet
Americans dont understand castles, hence why they never have them in zombie flicks

Unless you live in a rural area a vehicle, any vehicle would most likely only end up being your tomb. Roads will most likely be littered with vehicles and virtually impassable.
As someone above said, get as far away from population sources as possible. When it all goes boobs up, people will not be your friend! Given the population density of the U.K., finding somewhere remote enough to make for a long term survival destination would be difficult. Of course, if the plague wipes out a high % of the population then chances of finding somewhere remote increase.
The reality is though that if a pathogen did cause a zombie apocalypse, unless you are genetically lucky you'll likely be dead/zombified from the outset.

I would try to head to one of those WW2 era offshore AA platforms off the east coast. Being a few miles out to sea should deter any zombies. But being in Derbyshire getting to the coast might be a slight issue.
Alas I wouldn't.
As a transplant patient I require anti-rejection drugs daily. Without these I've probably got 10-14 days tops before my kidney was rejected.
Then requiring dialysis, I'd be dead in a month.
I always actually thought the idea of an "apocalypse" might be quite fun, in a strange kind of way. A reset for everyone, nobody caring about your past etc.
But no, with reality - I'd be dead a month or two after an apocalypse if I wasn't eaten/blown-up/tested on before

to here, and once inside replace the bridge with a drawbridge.
Looks like chapter 6 and 7 of Uncharted 4.

Similar here.
Got a level 60 lock in full BWL gear. I know we're talking Vanilla, but tier 2 is all you need for the zombies, even if they're elite mobs

Since I live on the coast now, i'd steal someone's boat and sail out to sea, monitor the radio for news of where the outbreak hadn't reached, probably cross the channel.
You are all thinking very selfishly.
My plan would be to find a very high vertical cliff with a river with good flow at the bottom. Then at the top build a funnel type system. PA system setup playing loud music. This will attract the zombies into the funnel. Then the force of the crowd of zombies will push them all over the edge. The river at the bottom will carry the zombie meat out to sea. Soon enough, you will have cleared the area. Then you can do small sorties out to round up more. Then eventually, uk would be cleansed. Sorted. Solution, not just survival.

I'd eat them. See how they like it. Chumps.
