michel roux, it has been a pleasure. thanks for being on hardtalk. thank you. hello.ather does not feature heavily in our forecast between now and christmas day, but cloud, wind and rain will. 0n the earlier satellite picture, you can see this stripe of cloud that brought rain in the south on tuesday. then a zone of clear skies not lasting long. more cloud rolling in from the atlantic, in association with a warm front, bringing a rather grey and quite damp wednesday in many locations. also quite a windy day out there, so any early brightness across england and wales will be replaced by cloud spreading from the north and the west with some outbreaks of rain. northern ireland and scotland just having a generally grey and cloudy day with some bits and pieces of rain and drizzle. it's going to be a breezy or indeed a windy day, but a mild one for most. just a little bit colder in the far north there in shetland. and then through wednesday night, extensive cloud cover, some mist and murk, splashes of rain, heavier rain pushing into scotland and the winds really picking up.

michel roux, it has been a pleasure. thanks for being on hardtalk. thank you. hello there.er cloudy start to the new week, but there should be a lot more sunshine emerging for most of us on tuesday. that's quite a mixed week of weather ahead. it will be tricky for travelling at times in the run up to christmas with more rain to come in the forecast, turning very windy too on thursday and friday. and in the colder—feeling air, there could even be a few wintry showers at times, especially over the high ground, of course. and there's currently cold air sinking southwards. milder air lasts across southern areas of england and south wales for a time too, but then it's gradually moving again. it's a soggy, very wet start to the day on tuesday across southern england and wales. that heavy rain eventually clearing, but not until we get to the afternoon. it's still a legacy of cloud across parts of kent and sussex until the end of the day. but lots of more sunshine emerging further north and west, with a brisk north—westerly wind and some showers just moving through into north—west

my guest today, michel roux, has played a big part in that transformation. acclaim, but now, he's closing it. so is this the end of a golden age of master chefs and fine dining?
