:00:20. > :00:23.Hello, welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker... And Alex Jones. On
:00:23. > :00:30.tonight's snow show, we will be bringing you the latest on how to
:00:30. > :00:34.say -- and stay safe. We will be asking if it is right for employers
:00:34. > :00:39.to dock pay if people cannot get to work because of the weather. And we
:00:39. > :00:47.will be seeing how these guys are coping with the snow. They are
:00:47. > :00:53.lovely, aren't they? Mike Catt does not do that at home. -- my cat.
:00:53. > :00:55.The show would not be complete without a snow panel. Please
:00:55. > :01:05.welcome for whether we is Carol Kirkwood, consumer champion Matt
:01:05. > :01:09.
:01:09. > :01:14.Allwright. And Simon Calder, never been colder! And Graham Bell.
:01:14. > :01:24.we have got some more of that lovely animal footage. We have some
:01:24. > :01:24.
:01:24. > :01:28.meerkats, trying to keep warm. This one has some lovely white gloves on.
:01:28. > :01:35.How was your weekend? Were you in your onesie, or outside making
:01:35. > :01:44.snowmen? I was in Switzerland. It was proper snow there. We had about
:01:44. > :01:50.a metre of fresh snow. The trains were all on time! This must be like
:01:50. > :01:55.a busman's holiday? It's funny, normally you come back from working
:01:55. > :01:59.on Ski Sunday and you think, wow, it's green. I drove into Henley,
:01:59. > :02:05.where I live, and it is all lovely. My daughter spent most of today's
:02:05. > :02:09.snowboarding because the schools were shut. We were hiking outside
:02:09. > :02:18.Henley and she was snowboarding. Inbox Hill, they were snowboarding
:02:18. > :02:23.as well. Classic, old school The best thing to do is to build a
:02:23. > :02:30.jumper so that you can have some fun. It's like you are rolling a
:02:30. > :02:40.snowman. And then you cut it in half. Then you get a bit of a
:02:40. > :02:42.
:02:42. > :02:45.careful stop does that sound good? You build it, you cut it and shake
:02:45. > :02:53.it and you make it into a jumper. Talking of cutting and shaping
:02:53. > :02:58.things, I was in a snow sculpture competition. This was my great
:02:59. > :03:06.white, with plum tomatoes. Carrots for teeth. It really shows his dark
:03:06. > :03:11.side! It was my son's idea. Very good. And the snow didn't stop
:03:11. > :03:15.farmer Jim Jones from getting to the church on time. That's right, a
:03:15. > :03:19.26-year-old from Shropshire, he realise that the track from his
:03:19. > :03:23.farm to the church was going to be a tricky proposition. He decided if
:03:23. > :03:27.he was going to meet his bride, he would have to take the tractor.
:03:28. > :03:31.That is what he did. He and his best man climbed into the tractor.
:03:31. > :03:37.Not only did they make it to the church, they managed to clear the
:03:37. > :03:40.path for the other guests. Good work. If you have been helped out
:03:40. > :03:44.in the snow by your neighbour or somebody in your community and you
:03:44. > :03:49.want to say a very special bite you, get in touch. If you have a
:03:49. > :03:53.photograph, even better. Now, 5000 schools have been closed across the
:03:53. > :03:57.country today. Anita Rani has been in Kent, where one head teacher is
:03:57. > :04:01.not having any of it. Thank the French for this weather.
:04:01. > :04:05.A band of low pressure came from the Continent, picked up moisture
:04:05. > :04:08.across the Channel, hit the cold temperatures of Kent and this is
:04:08. > :04:16.the result. I have met some people that are keeping the residents of
:04:16. > :04:21.Kent safe. At over 200 schools closed, this headmistress is
:04:21. > :04:24.keeping her school open. It's a very difficult decision to make,
:04:24. > :04:28.whether to open or close. We are continually watching weather
:04:29. > :04:32.forecasts, keeping up-to-date with local radio, news and travel
:04:32. > :04:38.eyelets. We are checking on the roads and whether we feel that the
:04:38. > :04:42.staff can get here safely. Then I have to consider if the school is
:04:42. > :04:47.going to be safe and warm. Only if I am satisfied with those, do I
:04:47. > :04:50.make the decision. Brendan Hill is a volunteer working with south-east
:04:51. > :04:55.4x4 response. His concerns are keeping travellers save from
:04:55. > :04:59.hazardous conditions. In the recent weather, we have been doing a
:04:59. > :05:04.variety of things. We have been carrying nurses around, district
:05:04. > :05:07.nurses, getting to the rural areas. We have been helping the railways
:05:07. > :05:12.out. There have been a couple of incidents where trains have broken
:05:12. > :05:15.down. We have helps to escort the people from the train safely. I
:05:15. > :05:21.think we all look forward to it, it gives us a chance to take the
:05:21. > :05:26.vehicles out and show the public what the 4x4s can do. They can
:05:26. > :05:29.actually have a really good use. For some, there is still fun to be
:05:29. > :05:33.had in this no. However, if you stray off the beaten track, you can
:05:33. > :05:38.be putting your life in danger. Kent search-and-rescue use
:05:38. > :05:47.volunteers and their dogs to help rescue those stranded or lost in
:05:47. > :05:51.the snow. Tell me what they are going to be doing today. They are
:05:51. > :05:56.all search dogs, they will look for anybody. We don't give them the
:05:56. > :05:59.person's cent. So they are not looking for somebody sufficient?
:05:59. > :06:04.Just a person? They are great in areas like behind me, where there
:06:04. > :06:08.is lots of open space. If you have been out with your dog, for Lenovo
:06:08. > :06:13.and broken your ankle, you cannot get yourself back out. We have seen
:06:13. > :06:19.quite a few people walking their dogs today, it is the perfect tool.
:06:19. > :06:23.Who do they belong to? They are my pets. They are trained, it is all
:06:23. > :06:28.reward driven. When they succeed, they get this big reward and that
:06:28. > :06:33.is what drives them. After all that talking in the cold, they were made
:06:33. > :06:37.ready for practical training. I have volunteers to hide in the snow,
:06:37. > :06:43.in the hope that the dog will rescue me. Let's see how good they
:06:43. > :06:53.are. Just behind this fallen tree, it's like playing hide-and-seek
:06:53. > :07:21.
:07:21. > :07:26.Will she find me? Hello! That was too easy. The sun is going down and
:07:26. > :07:30.it's getting dark. My shift is done, but theirs is just beginning.
:07:30. > :07:33.What a team. You are forecasting and predicting what these people
:07:33. > :07:38.are going to get, what does it feel like when you see images like that
:07:38. > :07:43.and your predictions have come to life? Relief! Thank goodness, yes,
:07:43. > :07:53.I have utter confidence in the Met Office, of course, and they got it
:07:53. > :07:57.spot on. Looking ahead, how is the rest of the week looking? First of
:07:57. > :08:02.all, tonight, there are still more snow to come. Especially across
:08:02. > :08:06.Northumberland, where there has been 29 cms today. That is getting
:08:06. > :08:09.on for one foot. There will be more snow across parts of Scotland,
:08:09. > :08:12.especially in the East and especially with a bit of height.
:08:12. > :08:16.It's compounded by strong wind, so there will be drifting and
:08:16. > :08:20.blizzards. By the time we get to tomorrow, there is the potential
:08:20. > :08:23.for snow across parts of Wales, Devon, Somerset and Wiltshire.
:08:23. > :08:27.There is a bit of uncertainty about that, but we think that is what is
:08:28. > :08:31.going to happen. It might affect southern counties. As we going to
:08:31. > :08:35.the latter part of the week, the snow risk recedes. There could
:08:35. > :08:42.still be some snow showers, but nothing like we have seen. Ice
:08:42. > :08:46.takes over as the risk. Also, freezing fog. Is it good snow for
:08:46. > :08:51.making snowmen, or the fine stuff that does not stick together?
:08:51. > :08:59.I think it is good snow. But I am still traumatised by that great
:08:59. > :09:03.white shark! I do apologise. Simon, in terms of flying and getting to
:09:03. > :09:08.different destinations across the world, there seems to be a war that
:09:08. > :09:11.has broken out between Gatwick and Heathrow, the head of Gatwick is
:09:11. > :09:18.good for us in Heathrow for not keeping things running? It has all
:09:18. > :09:21.kicked off in Airportland. He has written to the Transport Secretary
:09:21. > :09:25.saying that Heathrow has been rubbished the last few days. What
:09:25. > :09:28.they need to do is December, January, February, work out how
:09:28. > :09:32.many flights they can get off the ground and we will have the rest
:09:32. > :09:37.and you can also send some to Stansted to avoid the scenes of
:09:37. > :09:42.chaos we have seen. Heathrow, the busiest two runway airport in the
:09:42. > :09:46.world, no spare capacity. Gatwick, finally, the busiest one runway
:09:46. > :09:51.airport in the world, lots of spare capacity. That is what Mr Gatwick
:09:51. > :09:59.once. Mr Heathrow was not saying anything. You are flying in and out
:09:59. > :10:04.of places like this all the time? My Lufthansa plane was cancelled, I
:10:04. > :10:07.managed to switch to British Airways. There was a metre of snow
:10:07. > :10:12.next to the airport. It had been snowing for the last three days.
:10:12. > :10:16.Every flight was going out on time. I flew into Heathrow and we were
:10:16. > :10:21.basically... The captain was saying, we have to circle, don't worry we
:10:21. > :10:28.have put extra fuel on. We landed and parked for an hour before we
:10:28. > :10:32.can actually get to a stand. That is because of the disorganisation.
:10:32. > :10:36.All of the planes were having to be de-iced. They were not leaving so
:10:36. > :10:42.we could not go on. They were shutting for incoming planes
:10:42. > :10:45.because they had no where to put them. You were lucky, some of the
:10:45. > :10:50.flights, but delays have been amazing. If you were coming in from
:10:50. > :10:55.Lanica, you would have been 20 hours late. If you were collecting
:10:55. > :10:58.two yesterday's Las Vegas flight, you would have made it because it
:10:58. > :11:02.was 24 hours late! Announced its of Heathrow being back to normal
:11:02. > :11:09.tomorrow are completely wrong. British Airways is having a meeting
:11:09. > :11:15.right now. I would just like to go somewhere warm! Carol has the
:11:15. > :11:23.weather map, but you have a One Snow snowfall matter? I have. Well,
:11:23. > :11:29.I say I have, it is a snapshot of the snow. Northumberland is due for
:11:29. > :11:35.more. It doesn't need any more at the moment. 29 centimetres there.
:11:35. > :11:40.If we look across to Londonderry, 21 centimetres there. 17
:11:40. > :11:46.centimetres in Powys. 15 centimetres in Dumfries. 12 down in
:11:46. > :11:51.Devon, nine across in Norfolk. That is very cold. That is the thing.
:11:51. > :12:01.Incredibly low temperatures. Last week, it had the lowest temperature
:12:01. > :12:02.
:12:02. > :12:07.We are going to extend it further up north, to Lucy. We think she is
:12:07. > :12:11.around the Huddersfield area. How are you doing? I hope you are nice
:12:11. > :12:17.and warm in the studio. I'll tell you what, without wanting to state
:12:17. > :12:21.the obvious, it is blooming freezing. I am in Huddersfield, at
:12:21. > :12:24.the High School. On the outskirts of Huddersfield it has been snowing
:12:24. > :12:29.intermittently all day. On the outskirts it is about 20
:12:29. > :12:33.centimetres deep. We are struggling and amber and yellow warning. The
:12:33. > :12:38.amber is the most severe, between 10 and 20 centimetres, that is
:12:38. > :12:41.where snow is prone to drifting. Hopefully moving into the yellow
:12:41. > :12:45.zone, not quite so severe but bad enough to cause disruption all over
:12:45. > :12:51.the country. The High School here has been closed. That should not
:12:51. > :12:56.surprise us. There are 5000 schools across the country closed. It
:12:56. > :12:58.includes 120 in Wales. I know that in Newcastle and areas of the
:12:58. > :13:02.north-east they are already saying that certain schools are closed
:13:02. > :13:08.tomorrow. Do check that. It is worth checking everything at the
:13:08. > :13:13.moment, disruption is rife. We have been told that temperatures in
:13:13. > :13:17.Huddersfield could go down to minus six towards the end of the week. We
:13:17. > :13:21.have even heard rumours of minus ten around the Midlands, the east
:13:21. > :13:25.of England. Mid-Wales is also severely affected. Those amber
:13:25. > :13:30.warning is out of southern Scotland and the Pennines. We have seen a
:13:30. > :13:35.couple of major road closures. Huge disruption at airports. You have
:13:35. > :13:41.Simon Calder in, he will tell you about those. Please take care, the
:13:41. > :13:45.warnings are there to look at and to heed. The rail situation, there
:13:45. > :13:48.is a lot of disruption. I got to Huddersfield with relatively little,
:13:48. > :13:54.but I know that the trains from London to Brighton have been
:13:54. > :13:58.severely affected. Take care, wrap up warm. I am going to do something
:13:58. > :14:04.that I haven't done for many years, may I borrowed or sledge? Take care.
:14:04. > :14:14.I am off to Durham tonight, not on a sledge. If I make it, I will see
:14:14. > :14:19.Good luck getting to Durham! I spoke to my mum earlier and she
:14:19. > :14:24.said they were snowed in in Durham. Lock so people did struggle in to
:14:24. > :14:34.work today despite the bad weather. While they set off extra early,
:14:34. > :14:35.
:14:35. > :14:40.others had a more relaxed attitude. What should you be up to today?
:14:40. > :14:45.should be working. What did you say to your boss? How I said the car
:14:45. > :14:50.would not start this morning so I could not make it. And the boss
:14:50. > :14:54.believed it? He did not have a lot of choice! What is your situation
:14:54. > :15:00.today? I had to take time off because my vehicle could not get on
:15:00. > :15:07.the road. They you have managed to get here? My wife has a four-wheel-
:15:07. > :15:12.drive car. So a bit of a skive from the restaurant today? Yes. I love
:15:12. > :15:19.that you're just like, yeah. Have you ever properly skived off
:15:19. > :15:26.work? Years ago I have. Before you started your own business, did you
:15:26. > :15:29.ever skies? No, I did not. I wanted to buy nice things. I had it
:15:29. > :15:35.drummed into me as a child that I have to work, to earn, to get the
:15:35. > :15:41.money for things I want. Why did you take time off? To take the
:15:41. > :15:44.children sledging. So you were doing it for your children? Yes.
:15:44. > :15:49.it the first time you have taken time off work? No aye, every year
:15:49. > :15:56.when it snows. What does it mean for you getting time off? Spending
:15:56. > :16:00.more time with the grand kids. It is brilliant. Isn't it skiving?
:16:00. > :16:05.Possibly but there is more to life than just work.
:16:05. > :16:13.Yes, we have to point out that not everybody in that film was skiving.
:16:13. > :16:17.They genuinely could not get into work. Do you get paid? I have been
:16:17. > :16:22.speaking to an an employment lawyer. If you are snowed in and you cannot
:16:22. > :16:26.get to work genuinely, you're not legally entitled to be paid. That
:16:26. > :16:33.is not necessarily a paid day of. It does come down to the employer
:16:33. > :16:36.and how flexible they are. They can say you can be paid or work other
:16:36. > :16:40.hours instead but you're not necessarily entitled to the money.
:16:40. > :16:45.If it is not your fault, you cannot be disciplined. You cannot be
:16:45. > :16:49.sacked. How about the complication of children? If schools are closed
:16:49. > :16:53.and people have to stay behind to look after their children? It is a
:16:53. > :16:57.similar situation in that you cannot be sacked to stay off work
:16:57. > :17:04.to look after your children or arranging for them to be looked
:17:04. > :17:08.after but you cannot necessarily be paid for that. The thing is, you're
:17:08. > :17:12.not entitled to stay with them for all the time they of school. You
:17:12. > :17:16.are allowed a reasonable time to arrange for them to be looked after.
:17:16. > :17:22.If they offer all week, at some point the employer can say you
:17:22. > :17:29.should have sorted out something else. It is a bit fake.
:17:29. > :17:36.On Friday, Scott Ellis told me you should carry a spade in the car,
:17:36. > :17:41.very important. But today, some new tips have been released. It is very
:17:41. > :17:47.exciting. You can at your kit, warm clothing, a nice hot drink and a
:17:47. > :17:54.shovel, cat litter is the new accessory for the back of your car.
:17:54. > :17:58.Have you heard this one? It is important that you take the cat out
:17:58. > :18:07.first. This is supposed to provide excellent traction for under the
:18:07. > :18:14.tyres. That has been used! other thing to take has -- his
:18:14. > :18:19.carpet. A piece of carpet for each wheel, under the wheel will help
:18:19. > :18:23.you. As Alex Jones pointed out, most cars come with their bit of
:18:23. > :18:27.carpet which you can use. It is always tricky because everybody
:18:27. > :18:33.asks why does this country grind to a halt whenever there is snow on
:18:33. > :18:36.the ground? Because we have a very benign climate, don't we, Carol? I
:18:36. > :18:40.was stuck at Milton Keynes yesterday because trains were
:18:40. > :18:46.cancelled. I thought what latitude are we on here and what other
:18:46. > :18:52.cities are on the same latitude? 52 degrees north, the same as the
:18:52. > :18:57.capital of eastern Siberia, where it is currently minus 29. That is
:18:57. > :19:00.unfit for human habitation, unlike Milton Keynes, I must say. So
:19:00. > :19:05.therefore we get away with at most times but occasionally we get
:19:05. > :19:09.caught out as we have done this weekend. As you pointed out, it is
:19:09. > :19:14.usually a week at the most. One place where they have learned
:19:14. > :19:17.to cope with a fair bit of snow is in Scotland and Cameron Buttle is
:19:18. > :19:22.in the -- in the border town of Melrose. Good evening. First of all
:19:22. > :19:26.we have to say sad news about the tragedy which happened in Glencoe
:19:26. > :19:32.at the weekend. But on the whole, Scotland seems to be coping
:19:32. > :19:38.remarkably well with the snow. Why do you think that is? I think in
:19:38. > :19:42.Scotland we do get used to it. We expect it up here. Ikeda that his
:19:42. > :19:47.preparation. I am in the Scottish borders Council area and they knew
:19:47. > :19:53.about it last night. They had brought in a new system with the
:19:53. > :19:58.schools say rather than a blanket ban and all the schools are closed
:19:58. > :20:02.down, they target where the teacher lives and get them to go to the
:20:02. > :20:06.local school. They only have 17 schools closed today. It has been
:20:06. > :20:11.snowing constantly since midnight. The vast majority of the main
:20:11. > :20:16.routes have been open all day. Bear in mind, they do get it wrong
:20:16. > :20:18.appear. A couple of years ago it was havoc up here. There were a
:20:18. > :20:24.Scottish ministerial resignations over the issue. People were trapped
:20:24. > :20:28.on the motorway, thousands of people stuck in their cars
:20:28. > :20:32.overnight. Sometimes we can get it wrong. It is sometimes difficult
:20:32. > :20:37.for people to remember. Warnings are coming out for a reason. Listen
:20:37. > :20:43.to them and get prepared. Cameron, thank you and stay warm.
:20:43. > :20:49.He is not even wearing a hat or gloves. That his brilliant!
:20:49. > :20:54.Graham, Ski Sunday is back. I thoroughly enjoyed it with my son
:20:54. > :21:00.after a sledging. The best job in the world. I presume you never get
:21:00. > :21:06.sick of it? I love snow. It is such a great thing to play Ian and have
:21:06. > :21:11.fun in. And back in Scotland is where it started for you? I grew up
:21:11. > :21:17.in Edinburgh with my brother, Martin. I learnt to ski when I was
:21:17. > :21:22.five and Marton was six. We had a caravan at the base of the ski hill
:21:22. > :21:28.in Cairngorm mountain. We used to drive up there from Edinburgh in
:21:28. > :21:36.the winter. We used to defrost the caravan. Week brought the cat with
:21:36. > :21:41.Are who is the best skier, yourself or your brother? My brother, for
:21:41. > :21:45.sure. I am better at talking about Talking of good skiers, last night
:21:45. > :21:52.there was a guy who went over 100 miles an hour. That has never been
:21:52. > :22:02.done. He was a French skier who broke the 100 mile an hour barrier.
:22:02. > :22:03.
:22:03. > :22:13.You can do it this -- speed skiing. I have gone 120 mph. Why do you
:22:13. > :22:13.
:22:13. > :22:17.have a fruit bowl on your head?! is a kind of Fishermen's helmet. It
:22:17. > :22:22.had not been done down hill. In Speed skiing you wear a different
:22:22. > :22:26.suit and there is less to crash into. One of the best bits of the
:22:26. > :22:32.showers when you get hold of the camera and say I will take you down
:22:32. > :22:40.the course and use it without poles or anything. But I am not going it
:22:40. > :22:44.very fast. I am only going 75 mph! Not that fast. The Winter Olympics
:22:44. > :22:48.are coming up next year. You are clearly very excited. Do you think
:22:48. > :22:53.the rest of the country will get as excited as they do for the
:22:53. > :23:01.Olympics? I hope so. We have sought G20 14. This season and next season
:23:01. > :23:09.is the big one. We have some potential in be bobsleigh it
:23:09. > :23:13.skeleton, some snow since -- skiers and snowboarders as well.
:23:13. > :23:18.The snow and the eyes have affected thousands of people right across
:23:19. > :23:26.the UK but it is not just a struggling. Mike Dilger has been to
:23:26. > :23:31.Dudley Zoo. It is 6:30am at Dudley Zoo and snow
:23:31. > :23:36.overnight, with plenty more are expected, means it is all hands on
:23:36. > :23:41.pump. The safety of the zoo's animals is top priority. Because of
:23:41. > :23:46.the extreme weather, I have agreed to pitch in. Rich Brown is
:23:46. > :23:53.assistant curator of these two and my boss for the day. Quite a bit of
:23:53. > :23:59.snow overnight. It is a busy day for you. Yes, a busy day. Will you
:23:59. > :24:05.be opened today? Yes, if we do not get too much, we will be open.
:24:05. > :24:09.have brought in an extra three days' supply of food. And there is
:24:09. > :24:14.an added difficulty in getting it around the site. We have not been
:24:14. > :24:19.able to get any vehicles out. The animals still need feeding so we
:24:19. > :24:24.need to get these bags up to each section. If you would like to give
:24:24. > :24:30.us a hand. It can be difficult getting up the hills. It is tough
:24:30. > :24:35.work being a zoo keeper. It is worth it though. Another worry with
:24:35. > :24:40.the slow and low temperatures is the electric fences might be
:24:40. > :24:46.affected. We will give it a quick visual check from the outside and
:24:46. > :24:49.then we will check the perimeter of. Yes, that is working fine. Much as
:24:50. > :24:55.the good people of Dudley love their Tigers they do not want them
:24:55. > :25:00.running around these two? No, they do not! It is the first time the
:25:00. > :25:07.Tigers have seen the snow since they arrived in Dudley. Many of the
:25:07. > :25:12.animals come from cold climates so this weather is no bother for them.
:25:12. > :25:17.The main thing is feeding them more to give them extra calories to stay
:25:17. > :25:23.warm. It does not stop them from feeling the cold. It is fabulous to
:25:23. > :25:28.watch the penguins. One or two of them on the bank are looking cold.
:25:28. > :25:35.They are using their flippers to shiver. With the water frozen over
:25:35. > :25:43.in places, the ith needs breaking so the Patagonia and sea Lions can
:25:43. > :25:47.get in for lunch. I am going to back off a bit here! Many of the
:25:47. > :25:52.animals here are not used to the snow so need extra help to deal
:25:52. > :25:57.with the cold conditions. This is one animal I do not associate with
:25:57. > :26:02.snow, more the Kalahari desert. Of the mid- caps do not like it, I am
:26:02. > :26:08.sure. No, they are happy in their nest box. I am helping to put a
:26:08. > :26:14.heater in to keep them warm. For animals from the tropics of like
:26:14. > :26:20.the orang-utan, it is strictly indoor business. It is tempting to
:26:20. > :26:26.take a duvet day. A warm drink helps to keep the spirits up. That
:26:26. > :26:30.slurping was when he drank the orange squash. A lovely warm drink.
:26:30. > :26:36.The snowy conditions are tough for all the animals which originally
:26:36. > :26:40.came from the tropics and they are downright dangerous for one animal
:26:40. > :26:45.in particular. This is one animal which cannot go outside. That is
:26:45. > :26:51.purely due to the snow and ice. If we sent the draughts that they
:26:51. > :26:56.could slipover and cause serious harm. There are huge radiators.
:26:56. > :27:02.all the way around. It keeps the building nice and hot. I do not
:27:02. > :27:07.often say this, because I like my job, but I want your job! Shall we
:27:07. > :27:14.swap jobs?! On second thoughts, maybe I do not want to get up at
:27:14. > :27:20.5:30am every day. That is a lie in for you, Carol?
:27:20. > :27:27.What is he like? And what time will you be up tomorrow? 3am. It will be
:27:27. > :27:31.fresh for years at that time. You were about to launch into an
:27:31. > :27:38.anecdote. What was it about naked swimming? I was doing some filming
:27:39. > :27:42.with Simon Le Bon. The news that had to cut a hole in the ice and
:27:42. > :27:46.jumping naked. When you're in there you have a couple of minutes way
:27:46. > :27:53.you catch your breath. When you get out and dry off you feel really
:27:53. > :27:58.warm afterwards. Now, Simon, you have sat there all night with your
:27:58. > :28:03.laptop keeping us up-to-date. If tomorrow, how was the travel
:28:03. > :28:06.situation? Not looking good if you are flying from Heathrow. British
:28:06. > :28:12.Airways have released their first that cancellations. Belfast city,
:28:12. > :28:16.Bradford and Leeds have had cancellations. It is not because of
:28:16. > :28:22.the weather, it is because the pilots are in the wrong places.
:28:22. > :28:25.There are lots of diversions. People flying from Amsterdam to
:28:25. > :28:30.Leeds Bradford ended up in Durham Tees Valley. Bad news for them
:28:30. > :28:36.because there are rogue closures and train delays there. Thank you.
:28:36. > :28:41.Barry Proctor cleared five people's drives. Karl says thank you took
:28:41. > :28:47.Joanne for clearing our neighbour's drive. I like to thank all the
:28:47. > :28:52.parents who stayed at school to clear-up. And Ashley says thank you
:28:52. > :28:58.to the parents and friends who came to clear the school at Headington
