the remarkable artist christo.y. we'll be back next month with more first—hand accounts of extraordinary moments in history. but for now, from me and the rest of the witness history team, goodbye. hello. in the sunshine on saturday, it looked like summer but, with a brisk northerly wind, it did not always feel that way. temperatures in places struggling to get above the low teens in celsius and for others no sunshine to speak of, just cloud and rain through parts of northern and eastern england, the midlands, east anglia, and south—east england. all tied in with this area of low pressure, continuing to pull away eastwards through the early hours of sunday. high pressure to the west of the uk and, in between, the squeeze in the isobars. still some gusty winds down the eastern coasts. it's a cool if not chilly start to sunday, particularly across rural scotland, where we could see temperatures getting close to freezing, perhaps a touch of frost through the glens. but a good deal of sunshine to start the day on sunday

christo tells witness history how they did it.e that a husband and wife tea m one that a husband and wife team have cherished for more than a quarter of a century and this weekend the bulgarian born artist christo and his wife jean—claude began wrapping the german parliament building in silverfabric. german parliament building in silver fabric. it is very difficult to explain it if you cannot see it, no drawings, no sketch and no scale model can match the complexity of the project. the fabric is actually, it is not completely touching the stone, the surface. the project started in 1972. the cold war is still in full speed. you know, the building wall was built. permission to wrap the reichstag was refused three times. if the wall would have falle n times. if the wall would have fallen down, probably it would never have done the reichstag. for more than two decades the artist christo and his wife jean claude have wanted to work with the building that, for them, symbolised the cold war. you know, iwas them, symbolised the cold war.
