Stay tuned. We want to know what YOU think about our brand new weather
forecast.

It starts just after 17:55 BST... I hope it's the one they tried in the
style of the shipping forecast. That was very clear...

I heard it - it was OK. What they need to do now is to
eliminate the practice of using towns to represent fairly large
areas. 20°C in Southampton? What about Andover, then, people will
ask. Why not just say Southern England, or central Southern England,
or Hampshire?
Even so, an improvement. I wonder if they read these threads.
If so, my apologies to Messrs Schafernaker and Tobyn. I'm sure
they're terribly nice people and kind to animals.
