john fisher college and was a big impact.i think teachers don't realize the impact they have on kids when they are having the impact on them. i know i talk about mr. feldman who was a teacher at north high and i'm not sure what ever happened to him but he had a big impact on my life in a public speaking class. i think teachers are so underrated, underpaid, underappreciated. one of my favorite movies is mr. holland's opus. the teacher had no idea the impact he had on those kids until long after they graduated and he was ready to retire. so katie, thank you very much.

thank you to lucy fisher and john crowley and goodbye from all of us. hello.t and kept it very warm for the north west of scotland in particular where it was actually 16 degrees in the middle of the night. that very warm air stretches all the way from the tropics. this amber band shows it still sitting across northern ireland and scotland today. the cloud will hopefully become a little thinner this afternoon with some dry air from the continent mixing in across the south—east of england and east anglia allowing more sunshine here. hopefully some sunshine for northern england as well but i think it will be northern ireland and scotland that wins out with the most extensive of the blue skies and the top temperatures. after a flying start, you will agree, but in the afternoon with a south—westerly wind direction, that favours some warming around the moray firth, and we could get up to 16 here. some rain for the north west of scotland even as we head through the evening and overnight. that is thanks to this weather front. further south, overnight. that is thanks t
