after a decade of stays of execution, in november 2020, the plans and the passengers stopped, and it was time to say a final goodbye to this cold war relic. it's less than one year since tegel airport close to the public. now, it's full of deserted departure boards, closed carousels. it makes you feel like you're walking through a apocalyptic world. i want to rid myself of this eerie feeling, i want to know what this place was like when it was brimming full of people at the start of exciting journeys. hello roy. this strikes me as being an area

building of the berlin wall. so, the subdued melancholy of this long goodbye to tegel seems fitting. i can see why there is so much affection, almost sentimentality for it. but what's also brilliant as they have new art in here that kind of throw things forward, the kind of the end of an era, because this place will never because this place will never be forgotten. ladies and gentlemen, this really is the last call to tegel. right, still to come on the travel show. it's a marathon, not a sprint, getting your head together after months of lockdown. and a little pedal boat that can. real with a husband—and—wife team taking the welsh coastline by storm. what we're trying to do here is

5:41 am
university during the height of the pandemic. i think the hardest thing about being in yourfinal hardest thing about being in your final year of university, while all this was unfolding, i think there was a frustration because your early 20s is the time of your life when you can travel, go clubbing, new parts of the world, meet new people, and these are the perfect years to have stories to tell moving forward so you can really develop your character and i think a lot of young people felt incredibly deprived of that. if the uncertainty, the uncertainty of not really knowing what was going on are not being able to plan anything. fora not being able to plan anything. for a lot of young people when they finished university, travelling at such a big thing to look forward to, so i had a bit ofa a big thing to look forward to, so i had a bit of a nightmare injune. i decided to go to lisbon, and i was out there and i remember i was sitting at this beautiful cafe on a thursday morning and my phone was blowing up with messages and notifications about how lisbon was going to go into the
5:42 am
amber checklist which would mean i would have to quarantine, so i cancelled my hotel and originalflight, hotel and original flight, bought myself hotel and originalflight, bought myself a new flight and about two minutes after i bought, a notification came through on my phone saying that it wasn't going to happen until tuesday so i needlessly cancelled my flight and everything, lost out on quite a bit of money but also lost two daysin bit of money but also lost two days in such a brilliant and vibrant city, so i wasn't very happy. vibrant city, so i wasn't very happy- t vibrant city, so i wasn't very ha - . ~' vibrant city, so i wasn't very hau. ~ ., happy. i think the lockdown in winter last — happy. i think the lockdown in winter last year _ happy. i think the lockdown in winter last year was _ happy. i think the lockdown in winter last year was by - happy. i think the lockdown in winter last year was by far - happy. i think the lockdown inj winter last year was by far the hardest, octoberto winter last year was by far the hardest, october to january, definitely there were days when getting out of bed was an incredibly difficult thing to do. ., incredibly difficult thing to do. . , ., ., do. the final year at university _ do. the final year at university was - do. the final year at university was so i do. the final year at - university was so restrictive because every day seem to blow into one. event at a time of my life when i don't really know what i'm doing. no direction, surrounded by people who are helping me and guiding me, but just feeling a little bit last.
5:43 am
setting myself goals such as running and exercise was pivotal. i signed up to the marathon because it was something to look forward to, we all needed someone to look forward to after the last year. i'm really excited. during the london half marathon, i'm never been to paris before in my life, some it's a whole new city to explore. hard work! some of the landmark to go past our incredible, obviously the
5:44 am
eiffel tower, the opera house, past the louvre. there are so many things i'm looking forward to, one of the things as architecture, i've heard that it's so beautiful and tell such a tail and i'm a bit of a hopeless romantic as well, so i thought going to the city of love in europe is my best bet. if paris got cancelled i would be really gutted, but i think i've always been an optimist of mindset and i think would be great to run a marathon around here and ijust have to replan and get my hopes up the world we're living in at the moment, it's frustrating, but i'm determined to get through it fingers crossed we will show you how freddie gets on in paris in around one month's time. last week we joined husband and

amazing scenes. congratulations to jason and tammie. i've got a feeling it is not the last time we will hear about those two. right, but is it for this week. coming up next time—i am in ireland, exploring from dublin to the south of the country in our all electric travel show van. finding out how they are preparing to welcome back tourists after the lockdown. that was a real smoker. perfect. if you fancy following up perfect. if you fancy following up on social media, we are in all of the usual places and we have loads of inspiration for the next time you're on the road. in the meantime though, keep planning your next trip and we'll see you very soon. goodbye.

hello. on friday, we saw temperatures in oxfordshire up to 25.3 celsius — well above average for this stage in september — and through the weekend, we're going to be keeping the fairly warm, mainly dry theme with some sunshine around. now, the reason that temperatures are doing so well at the moment is because we're drawing in our winds from a south or south—westerly direction, so fairly tropical air, infact, pushing across the uk. and if we compare the forecast temperatures to average for this time of year, in fact, they're about 5—6 degrees above average through the weekend. fast—forward now into the middle of next week and you can see the reds and oranges have disappeared from the map so temperatures will be average or even a little below by the time we get to around about tuesday next week. but for the here and now, we're going to be starting saturday morning on a mild note with temperatures in the mid—teens. quite a lot of mist and murk and, in fact, some areas around coasts and hills in the west could keep some fog all day but it will gradually lift and clear and things
5:55 am
will brighten up. so some sunshine appearing, particularly for the likes of north wales, central and eastern england and eastern scotland, too, so temperatures in the warmest spots 22—23 degrees, but even where you have got the cloud, still 18—19 celsius. a bit breezy with the odd spot of drizzle for the west of scotland but most other places avoiding any showers. as we move through the overnight period and on into sunday, there could just be one or two spots of showery rain here and there but most places again looking largely dry and temperatures staying in the mid—teens again as we head on into sunday, so no great changes for the weather. we have got a weather front waiting in the wings here. as it moves a little bit closer in, you'll start to notice the breeze picking up a touch on sunday. still from a southerly direction, a warm wind direction, so a lot of drier weather, probably a bit more sunshine on sunday compared to saturday. one or two rogue showers. rain later in the day arrives from the west across northern ireland and western scotland but before it gets there, well, temperatures once again doing pretty well — 22—23 degrees for the warmer spots, well above average on sunday.
5:56 am
but then let's take a look at sunday night into monday then. this weather front sweeps its way eastwards across the uk, so that is going to be marking that change into cooler air as we head through the early part of next week. weather fronts moving in from the atlantic introducing notjust cooler air but more unsettled weather as well. so into next week, blustery showers, not as warm as it has been. do enjoy the warm sunshine if you see it through the weekend. bye for now.
