And in his First Christmas message as monarch, king charles is to pay tribute to his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth ii. You are watching bbc news. Now on bbc news, the travel show. Hello and welcome to this very special edition of the show, coming to you from the spectacular Valley Of The Kings here in luxor in egypt. If you were watching last week, you would have seen me unearthing the story of how tutankhamen s tomb was discovered here 100 years ago this year.

Again, its going to be breezy across the north. Weather fronts bringing outbreaks of rain. And were into a milder air mass, i think, on friday. Ourairsource coming in off the atlantic. So a lot of cloud around, it starts off sunny and cold in the south, but i think cloud may build up through the afternoon.

Could be up to around 8 9 celsius degrees in the south because of that cold start. But it turns milder through friday night. Quite a lot of cloud streaming in from the west. A few clear spells here and there. Itll be very mild across the north of the uk. It could be ten degrees in aberdeen overnight, four and five in the south. So, i think mostly frost free. And then for the weekend, this area of High Pressure holds on quite a lot of cloud trapped in it, but its going to bring a lot of dry weather both saturday and sunday
