have a virtual network. there are of course challenges like launching a feature film when cinemas are closed. even more so perhaps for this one. jungle beat tells the story of a young alien who learns about the power of a hug, potentially a difficult sell with social distancing. we panicked a bit when we realised the message of our film was loving and hugging and in a time when everyone has been told to stay away from each other and stay at home and not go near anybody else, so we thought, "let'sjust spin it." promote hope, and we will hug again. the idea of promoting hope brought other creative minds together and even the title track was made during the peak of the pandemic. it was daunting. we did vocals.

and with that, strong winds circling around this low pressure. it is anchored around about scotland. and you can see the heavy rain keeps coming at the same place — parts of northern ireland, south—western scotland through the early hours of monday into the lake district, lancashire and northern wales. further south—east, the skies should be a little bit clearer. then, eventually tomorrow afternoon, it looks as though some of that heavier rain will push out into the north sea, but we will still have showers around. certainly across scotland and northern england, possibly thundery ones as well. and here are the gusts on the arrows here. a0 miles an hour or more. that's near gale—force and is windy for the time of year. temperatures will be around 16 to 19 celsius — if you add on those gusts of wind and then the showers, it is going to feel chilly. here is tuesday's weather map. you just get a sense of the jet stream here pushing another weather front in our direction. 0ne low pressure moves away. the next weather front comes in. so, the thinking is probably a fair bit of cloud and a chance

of some rain, at least for a time on tuesday. and then on tuesday afternoon, we are expecting showers to break out across scotland and northern england. again, temperatures mostly in the teens. we certainly are not going to be breaking any records in the week ahead. if anything, temperatures will be below the average for the time of the year. wednesday, some wet weather early in the morning across the south. and then showers in the afternoon across much of the country. there could be some downpours and thunderstorms. temperatures might nudge up a little bit, giving some sunshine. it could get up to around 20 degrees celsius. here is the summary. and the week ahead, you can see it is mostly in the teens. some mixed weather there. certainly showers on the cards. the next spell of dry weather is probably coming our way on sunday. 00:14:25,678 --> 2147483051:43:57,554 at last week's rally 2147483051:43:57,554 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 in tulsa in oklahoma.
