The Met Office has just upgraded its weather warnings for tomorrow and Friday from yellow to amber, meaning there's now an increased chance of heavy snow across our region. Take care while driving, out walking, or heating your home, and always call 999 in an emergency.

Well, Kirstie, the BBC is in real danger now, and it’s going to need the support of everyone who thinks that public service broadcasting - as opposed to, say, the Fox News model - is worth defending.

I love the fact that people are debating that the BBC is both too left wing and too right wing. I listen to @BBCRadio4 every day of the week & I constantly shout at the radio (actually my phone) and tweet criticism, but I’d be lost without it, we all would.
