The banner headline which is meant to sum up the entire British Isles'
(South East England's) expected weather should be obliterated.


And so should the zooming around the UK part. I honestly don't see
what this adds to our knowledge of the weather. I can see what it's
going to be like from the map of the whole UK. It's especially bad on
days where the whole of the UK is pretty much the same, but still they
have to zoom around, and try and think of different ways to phrase the
same thing:

"...in the south east it will be a dry day and around 20 deg. Towards
the south west it will also be dry, with temperatures around 20 deg.
It is a similar story in Scotland. A lot of dry weather around..."
Aargh!

And also, while I'm here, why does the weather map show us France, the
Netherlands, Denmark, Norway and Sweden? Why not get rid of these, and
have the British Isles take up more of the screen?

That's enough complaining for now!
