there may have been a shortage of big—name stars to light up the red carpet here at the berlin film festival this year but there were plenty of good films to see. clinical movies, documentaries, horror pictures, stories of romantic entanglements. my colleague emma jones has been taking a look at some of the offerings. both i and my friend film critic glenn tubb attend the berlinale every year. he helped me pick up some of the better and most provoking films of the festival. one of the films i guess that caused quite a bit of stir is italian maestro dario argento who has come back with another film dark glasses. he is in his 80s now, still making movies. what did you make of it? bill making movies. what did you make of it?— make of it? all love him because _ make of it? all love him because he _ make of it? all love him because he makes i make of it? all love him because he makes this i make of it? all love him i because he makes this period and he is the father of modern italian horror and it's a

hello. after a largely fine and settled weekend with plenty of springlike sunshine, things are looking a little bit more unsettled as we start this working week. this was the picture as the sun went down sunday evening off the coast of north yorkshire, but we've had a weather front moving its way in through the course of the night. through monday, it's going to be bringing cloud and rain to many parts of the uk, particularly towards the north and the west as well. so, first thing monday, that rain will be sitting across parts of southern and eastern scotland, northern england, down through wales into the south west of england, too. this frontal system is really going to be quite slow—moving through the day, so some of that rain for south west of england, wales, north west england is going to be persistent and heavy, too. it's also going to be quite a breezy—feeling day, particularly across the far north—west. for the western isles, we could see gales developing through the course of the day. and top temperatures for most of us between about 8—11

degrees but for the south east of england and east anglia, where it stays dry for a good part of the day, a very mild 13 celsius. but eventually, that rain will sweep its way eastwards across all parts. it'll be followed by clearer skies, just a few showers in the far north continuing, a bit more of a breeze here on into tuesday, but certainly, a touch of frost for many of us away from southern england and south wales first thing tuesday morning. so, during tuesday, then, we've got this weather front that is going to hang around across some southern and south—eastern parts. clears away from the rest of the uk as high pressure builds in behind it. so, a lot of dry, settled weather on the cards for tuesday, but that cloud and patchy rain continuing into the far south. bit of uncertainty about how far north it gets. mostly, i think, any rain will be confined to the south of the m4 corridor. but to the north of that, plenty of blue sky and sunshine once again with top temperatures between about 8—10 degrees on tuesday. heading onto the middle part of the week and there's a bit of a wave on that weather front, so it starts to move back northwards and eastwards across the uk into wednesday

but as it bumps into that higher pressure, it is tending to fizzle out so, really, quite a weak affair. a fairly cloudy day for most of us on wednesday with a few splashes of rain moving their way northwards. i think northern and eastern scotland keeping the sunshine through the course of the day. not feeling particularly warm where you're underneath that cloud with highs around about 8—10 degrees for most of us. and them, further ahead towards thursday, still some outbreaks of rain as the next front moves its way in from the west but for many of us, things are turning a bit drier and brighter through friday and on into the weekend, too. more details, as ever, on our website.
