Brilliant Weather Reporting

Whilst listening to the latest ‘Net at Night’ podcast, I was reminded of the infamous (at least in the UK) weather reports by Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight, a late night news and analysis programme. Basically the BBC were cutting costs and thought that getting the presenters of the Newsnight programme to give the last weather report of the night would be a good idea. I remember that it lasted a week because of the resistance, the brilliant resistance of Jeremy to actually reading it – it did however create some of the funniest television you have ever seen with regard to the weather. For those, here is a compendium as presented on the ‘Have I Got News For You’ programme, guest presented brilliantly by the other Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear.
