Latest weather maps show temperatures are expected to drop well below the seasonal average

Parts of Scotland could drop to just 2C, as temperatures across the UK plummet.

While forecasters from the Met Office and MeteoGroup – which provides data to BBC Weather – said Brits face an increased chance of heatwaves this summer, next week Scotland could experience an early summer freeze.

Although warm conditions shouldn’t be too far away, the ECMWF weather model suggests a cold spell is on the cards next week, starting on Tuesday. Minimum possible temperature maps show every inch of the UK – all 92 counties – could see temperatures below 10C at around 6am, reports the Mirror.

Predictably, the coldest conditions on Tuesday are expected in northern Scotland, where 4C is on the cards in the morning – but even in the south-east of England, where temperatures tend to be warmest, the mercury could struggle to surpass 8-9C.

ECMWF model data for Wednesday morning shows a similar picture, this time with temperatures dropping to 2C in Scotland.

For Northern Ireland, northern England, central England and Wales, the mercury could reach just 6-8C. The data does however show minimum temperatures hitting double digits (just 10C) in the south-east of England on Wednesday morning.

On Thursday morning, northern Scotland might see highs of just 1C.

The maps for Thursday do however show slight improvements in southern England, particularly in the south-west where minimum temperatures at 6am are shown as reaching 10-11C.

Temperature anomaly maps for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week show the whole country shaded in blue. This indicates where temperatures are expected to drop well below the seasonal average.

Met Office’s latest weather forecast

The Met Office forecast also shows a grim picture heading into next week. It predicts “often breezy” conditions and below-average temperatures for the start of the week, with long spells of rain possible too.

The Met Office forecast for June 9 to 19 states: “Changeable early in this period with Atlantic frontal systems moving across the UK. These will bring showers or longer spells of rain at times, with wettest conditions in the northwest, drier in the southeast. Strong winds may affect parts of the UK at times, especially the northwest.

“Later in the period, higher pressure and more settled conditions may begin to become more prevalent, especially in the south. There will probably still be some wet interludes though.

“Temperatures are likely to be near to or a little above normal overall.”

Anthony Head and his longtime partner Sarah Fisher were introduced to each other in the early 80’s backstage at the National Theatre – they met and stayed together until their deaths

Actor Anthony Head, best known for his roles in Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Ted Lasso, has died at the age of 72. It comes months after the death of his partner, Sarah Fisher.

Anthony Head, who died of “complications due to pneumonia” on Friday, and his longtime partner Sarah Fisher died suddenly on January 1 at age 61, the couple’s daughters, Emily and Daisy, confirmed in a Facebook post at the time.

“We are so sorry to have to share the news that our extraordinary, kind and talented mother, Sarah, passed away recently,” Emily and Daisy wrote in their Facebook statement, adding that the passing was “immensely shocking to us all” as it “came with very little warning.”

“No words could ever express all that she encompassed, or begin to describe the crater her absence has left.”

Here’s everything to know about Anthony Head’s wife and kids.

They met backstage at a show

The couple was introduced to each other in the early 80’s backstage at the National Theatre, where Head was performing in a run of “Danton’s Death.”

“I was doing a play called Danton’s Death and for the last entrance I had to come on as a soldier taking traitors to the guillotine,” he recalled to Hello! Magazine in 2001, per People. “I’d wait in a corridor at the back with my musket and one day this beautiful lady walked past carrying a pint of beer for some guy front of house.”

Head continued, “I got there earlier and earlier in the hope I’d see her again. Eventually, we’d sit and chat before I’d have to go on for a beheading.”

Head told The Mirror in January 2012 that they never actually married. “I’ve asked her to marry me several times, but she’s not interested,” he said.

Fisher was an animal welfare advocate

Prior to her death, Fisher lived with Head in Bath, England, where the animal rights advocate ran Tilley Farm — a sanctuary for rescued horses, ponies and donkeys.

While she and Head were together from 1982 until her death, Head revealed in 2018 that Fisher simply had no desire to get married.

“She just isn’t interested [in getting married]. She says f–k off and then runs off to throw up,” he joked to the Daily Telegraph.

Still, he considered himself to be “married” and added, “I just can’t imagine my life without Sarah. And I definitely wouldn’t want to.”

They had two children together

Head and Fisher welcomed two daughters, Emily and Daisy. As they grew up, Emily and Daisy often stepped out with their parents for public events, including award shows and red carpets.

Daisy and Emily both followed in their father’s footsteps and became actresses.

Fisher died in December 2025

Fisher sadly died in December 2025, her daughters announced on Facebook.

“It is immensely shocking to us all, and came with very little warning,” the post read. “No words could ever express all that she encompassed, or begin to describe the crater her absence has left.

The post continued, “We know how profoundly she has impacted the lives of so many, and we couldn’t be more proud of the legacy she is leaving behind.”

Head then passed away in 1999.

The broadcaster is fronting a new documentary about the condition, which is the UK’s biggest killer

Jon Snow, who read the news on Channel 4 for over 30 years, has revealed he is living with Alzheimer’s disease.

Snow, 79, hosted Channel 4 News from 1989-2021 and was diagnosed with dementia in 2023, but has only now chosen to speak publicly.

Jon, who is supporting the Alzheimer’s Society, has decided to open up about his diagnosis to raise awareness of the condition, which affects around a million people in the UK.

His life with the condition will feature in a new documentary produced by Basement Films, Jon Snow: A Last Big Story, which will air on Channel 4 on Saturday, June 20.

In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail, Jon shared that following his retirement in 2021, he sank into a deep depression. He had became withdrawn and lost interest in things he once loved, reports the Daily Star.

Jon also worried that friends were no longer contacting him – “Nobody ever rings,” he said, “I’m forgotten.” In reality, he had forgotten about the calls.

Despite being reluctant to see a doctor, insisting there was nothing wrong, a cognitive assessment and brain scan revealed that Jon had Alzheimer’s disease.

Jon still questions the diagnosis, saying: “I mean sometimes I doubt whether I’ve really got it. I don’t know if it’s widespread knowledge. I don’t feel disabled in any way,” wondering if his behaviour is simply normal for his age.

His wife Precious said: “Friends kept asking me if Jon was alright and I would have to lie and say he’s fine, but I knew he wasn’t.”

The Alzheimer’s Society says it is a common misconception to question whether dementia is a normal part of ageing.

While people often forget things more as they get older, dementia is caused by diseases of the brain and its symptoms can include problems with planning and decision-making, language, and sometimes changes in mood or behaviour.

In the film, Jon says: “At the beginning I wanted to hide it, there’s so much prejudice. Any sort of hint of mental decay, you’re sort of dead.

“There are moments when it pops up but it’s not an all day every day condition, and that’s what I cling onto.”

Michelle Dyson, CEO of the Alzheimer’s Society, said: “Jon’s decision to talk publicly about his dementia diagnosis is a real act of courage and his story will resonate with so many.

“His support for Alzheimer’s Society will help spark a national conversation about dementia that we so desperately need. Despite being the UK’s biggest killer, dementia is still not treated with the same urgency as other major health conditions like cancer.

“Alongside his wife Precious, Jon is shining a light on the need for faster, fairer access to diagnosis. An early diagnosis can unlock vital support, help families plan ahead and potentially open the door to participation in clinical trials.

“Yet too many people across the country are still waiting far too long for a diagnosis.

“We look forward to working with Jon, whose long-standing commitment to speaking out against injustice will help ensure the harsh realities of dementia cannot be ignored by the UK Government and the NHS.

“I would encourage anyone needing help or information to call our Dementia Support Line on 0333 150 3456 or visit alzheimers.org.uk.”

Here is what you can expect over the next few days

The weather throughout Northern Ireland is set to remain “changeable” this weekend, the Met Office has forecast.

Friday saw some brighter conditions and fewer showers compared to much of the week before, with conditions often feeling cool, particularly in the wind.

The weather forecaster has advised that over the weekend of June 6-7, conditions will turn wetter and windier across much of the UK. It is expected there will be “a spell of rain and strengthening winds moving northeastwards”, while “winds will also strengthen, especially along coasts and in the west, with some locally gusty conditions possible.”

In Northern Ireland, it’s expected that rain will “become light and patchy” during Saturday morning. It will become dry and bright over western counties in the afternoon, then across the east in the evening. The maximum temperature is expected to reach 17C.

On Sunday, “outbreaks of heavy rain will move northeast” before “bright or sunny spells and showers” take hold for the beginning of next week. Temperatures on June 7 are expected to reach 18C.

Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Chris Bulmer, said: “Over the next few days we’ll continue to see a fairly changeable picture, with a mix of sunshine and showers for many.

“Into the weekend, a more organised area of rain and stronger winds will move across the UK, although this system is likely to weaken as it does so.

“While some heavier rain and gusty conditions are possible at times, the overall picture remains one of changeable weather, with further spells of rain or showers interspersed with some drier and brighter periods.”

Celebrity Gogglebox returned to Channel 4 on Friday (June 5) for a brand new series but just minutes in, some viewers were left fuming at the new lineup

Disgruntled Celebrity Gogglebox viewers were left complaining just minutes into the new series.

The Channel 4 spin-off returned to screens on Friday (June 5) for a brand new run, welcoming back popular favourites such as Vernon Kay and Paddy McGuinness, Nick Grimshaw and niece Liv, and Denise Van Outen and Johnny Vaughan.

There are several new faces joining the new series too, including Olivia Attwood and her mum Jennifer, Harry and Matt aka Nitro and Legend from Gladiators.

Rounding off the line-up are Strictly star George Clarke and content creator Max Balegde, alongside comedian and actor Julian Clary and actor and television presenter Nigel Havers.

However, just minutes in and viewers were left dissatisfied, with many baffled by the identities of the celebrities on screen. On X, one person said: “God am I old? Watching Celebrity Gogglebox and don’t know half of the celebrities on it.”, reports the Mirror.

Someone else added: “I’m so out of touch. Who are most of these ‘celebrities?’” A third chimed in: “Don’t know half of these celebrities.” Another penned: “Can they put names and occupation for some of them, because who tf are some of these people?”

A fifth said: “F*** watching #CelebrityGogglebox whole minutes we lasted!! Series link removed.” A sixth penned: “Bloody hell, this is extremely irritating with all these so-called celebs all trying too hard to be funny.”

Another fumed: “Switched over. Can’t bear this anymore.” Someone else declared: “Needs renaming- unfunny non-celeb Z-list hasbeens.” Meanwhile, discussing her appearance on Celebrity Gogglebox, Olivia Attwood said it “was chaotic but in the best possible way”. She explained: “It’s not often that we agree on things which I think the viewers may find entertaining. My family are huge fans of the show so it’s a real honour to be a part of such an iconic British programme.”

Strictly 2025 finalist George Clarke also said: “I loved it, mainly because it gave me a full excuse to take the mick out of Max on national TV.

“He reacts to everything, so you’re never bored. It’s so easy to get into as well, you just sit there, say exactly what you’re thinking, and before you know it, we’ve gone completely off track!”

Coronation Street legend Nigel Havers also shared: “It’s a dream come true working with Julian on Gogglebox. I can’t think of a better way to spend an evening… (Julian wrote this).”

Celebrity Gogglebox airs every Friday at 9pm on Channel 4.

The biggest reveal at Summer Game Fest 2026 was the third of the Final Fantasy 7 remake games and it’ll be out on all formats at the same time.

This year’s Summer Game Fest was undoubtedly one of the best ones so far but, as ever, it was a frustrating experience to watch, as while there were lots of exciting games most barely got a minute or two on stage before the focus immediately switched to something else.

So while getting new glimpses at games such as Resident Evil Veronica, Alien: Isolation 2, and genATLAS (by the maker of ICO) were great there was very little official information and relatively little to glean from the footage itself.

Some games did get a little more time to shine though and Final Fantasy 7 Revelation got more than any, since it was the mic drop annoucement at the end of the show. The final part of the Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy, it will be released in spring 2027 simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.

Seemingly against the odds, the first two parts – Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth – have been exceptionally good, managing to honour the original PS1 game while also reinventing its gameplay, expanding its storytelling, and being perfectly accessible for anyone that doesn’t already know the story.

As such, there’s every reason to expect Revelation will be just as good, especially as Rebirth was our game of the year in 2024. It wasn’t a perfect experience though and while mileage did vary, many people felt the open world element was too overblown and bloated.

If Square Enix felt they should react to that criticism it didn’t show during the reveal, with a lot of fuss made over the fact that it’s the ‘most expansive’ open world yet and that you can pilot the Highwind airship anywhere you want and immediately parachute to whatever’s below you.

Beyond that, the trailer featured everything you’d expect, including gunslinging vampire Vincent Valentine (who, like Yuffie, was only an optional character in the original) and Higwind pilot Cid as a playable character.

Various Weapons – super hard enemy bosses – also turn up and you can now change each character’s outfit, which alters their attributes and abilities accordingly.

Exactly when in spring the game will be released was not mentioned, but technically that should put it somewhere between March and May. Which suggests that the game wasn’t initially planned for this year and isn’t trying to get out of the way of GTA 6.

The game’s reveal wasn’t the only time Final Fantasy 7 was mentioned during Summer Game Fest, with Tifa turning up as one of the new characters for season four of Street Fighter 6.

Like most things at Summer Game Fest, that had been rumoured beforehand, but it makes sense as she is the brawler of the group. Although it’s rare for Street Fighter to feature cameos of characters from non-Capcom games.

The other three fighters are all brand new, which is always nice to see, with Yasmine and Arjun being complete unknowns at the moment. Bosch was in the story mode of Street Fighter 6 as your rival, but he’s never been playable before, although we can assume he’s a dab hand with a power drill.

ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE (AP) — President Donald Trump said Friday that he wants his new acting director of national intelligence, Bill Pulte, to cut the office, which has already been significantly scaled back during his second term.

Trump noted that the size of the office has been “way too high for way too long” and that “if he cut, I wouldn’t mind that.”

“He’ll do a very good job,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One as he traveled to Wisconsin for an event on agriculture. “He’ll watch it closely, but Bill Pulte is very good, he’s very talented.”

Trump told the Journal that he wants Pulte to “start the process” of firing personnel and that the eventual permanent director of national intelligence should continue it. The president has indicated that he would not formally nominate Pulte for the position.

“Frankly, it might be good for him to shake it up before people come,” Trump said. “Because, if he (Pulte) reduced the size, in conjunction with me … and in conjunction with possibly the person coming in … he can do a lot of the hard work and we wouldn’t have to saddle somebody that goes in.”

Pulte was tapped by the president earlier this week in a surprising move that has been met with bipartisan resistance in the Senate, which confirms presidential nominations. The temporary appointment has now snarled the renewal of a critical national security surveillance program on Capitol Hill, with Democrats key to the vote pointing out that they did not trust Pulte — whose office oversees 18 intelligence agencies — to help administer the surveillance program.

Trump told reporters on Air Force One that Pulte will stay in the position depending on how long it takes to get his successor confirmed. The president also said he was considering five people who were “all very good, all people that you know very well, all people that do that kind of thing.”

“They’re very respected people,” Trump said of his intelligence candidates, without naming them.

Under Pulte’s predecessor, Tulsi Gabbard, the DNI office had already taken steps to scale back its size. In August, the Trump administration said that the office’s budget would be cut by more than $700 million per year, while slashing the size of its workforce.

At the time, Gabbard said the office had become “bloated and inefficient” while she announced the roughly 40% workforce reduction.

Gabbard resigned last month after revealing her husband’s cancer diagnosis.
