they would have witnessed the murder of thomas becket. story of england's history, its artistry and its religious thinking. now a new scientific discovery has given us a fresh perspective on the nation's past. what a great story. take a look around your friends circle — do fewer people come to mind than a few years ago? you're not alone. new studies in the us and in the uk suggest that people have fewer friends than in the past. according to the survey center on american life, 30 years ago, 33% of american adults said they had ten or more close friends, and now only 13% say that. the pandemic does have a part to play in this, but the responses are a part of a wider and longer—term trend with levels of loneliness and boredness also rising. daniel cox has been studying friendship trends in the us, and he joins us now from washington. some of the headlines i have read on this over the past few ever saying americans have fewer friends than ever before, is that right? to americans have fewer friends than ever before, is that right?- ever befor

they would have witnessed the murder of thomas becket.ientific discovery has given us a fresh perspective on the nation's past. remarkable how much those stained—glass windows have witnessed. i'm back very shortly. well, it's been a fairly quiet day today, but tomorrow, you might have to run for cover. we've got the big rain clouds on the way. heavy showers are expected to form downpours in places, thunder and lightning, too, but they are showers. discrete areas of heavy rain with plenty of bright weather around, too, so it won't be raining everywhere. this is the big picture across our part of the world. the jet stream to the south of us, that often means cooler air comes in out of the north atlantic, so it's pushed all the warmth and heat towards the south. we're in this cooler airstream, and it's also a very unstable airstream, which means that shower clouds easily form when we get a bit of sunshine — not, obviously, at night. it's dark, so clear weather across eastern areas, but a weather front is approaching western parts of the uk,

they would have witnessed the murder of thomas becket.eather with tomasz. hello, thanks for tuning in. time to have a look at the weather for the next few days or so. this week is going to be a very showery week. lots of sunny spells in store, but also some big downpours. now, this is what the atmosphere looks like more or less right now. the jet stream is to the south of us. when the jet stream's south of us, the weather tends to be more unsettled, you can see low pressure heading our way, and the low pressure will be sitting on top of us during the middle part of the week. the problem is within this area of low pressure, the winds are going to be very, very light and we'll see storms forming as well. that means that with light winds, the storms will be moving very slowly, bringing a lot of rainfall. so, what's happening, then? we've got the sunshine. it's a very strong sun this time of the year and it's heating the ground. as it heats the ground, we see big storms forming. so, we've got the ground here, hot sunshine warming up the atmos
