8. #CLARKSON: Jeremy Clarkson has said he’ll miss hosting Top Gear. Writing in The Sun, he said: ”Heartfelt thanks to all those who have written to say how much they will miss me on Top Gear. It’s not as much, however, as I’ll miss being there.”

9. #THE OUTLOOK: Today’s weather forecast isn’t too bad. It’ll be dry in most areas. Temperatures will only reach around 15 degrees, though. And it will be cooler still at the coasts – just around 11 or 12.
