Now lets hear more from Prince Charles who has paid tribute to his father, the duke of edinburgh. From outside his home at highgrove he said the Royal Family miss him � enormously�. I particularly wanted to say that my father, i suppose the last 70 years, has given the most remarkable, devoted service to the queen, to my family, to the country, and also to the whole of the commonwealth. And as you can imagine, myfamily and i miss my father enormously. He was a much loved and appreciated figure, and apart from anything else, i can imagine we are so deeply touched by the number of people here and elsewhere around The World and around the commonwealth who also, i think, share our loss and our sorrow, and My Dear papa was a very special person who, i think, above All else, would have been amazed by the reaction, and the touching things that have been said about him, and from that Point Of View we are, my family, deeply grateful for All that. It will sustain us in this particular loss and particularly sad time. The prince of wales paying tribute to his father. Now on bbc news, President Biden claims America Is Back.

The first half of the weekend has been cold. The second half of the weekend starts with frost. And sunday promises to be another chilly day for the time of Year Therell be some sunshine and wintry showers around, as well. Now this was the picture on saturday at buxton in derbyshire. I know its high up, but we had a covering of snow for a while. Towards more southeastern parts of england, it was cloudy skies with some Rain And Drizzle that Damper Weather has been moving away, its been on that Weather System there thats heading into continental europe, so The Cloud is breaking towards the southeast. Weve got High Pressure to the west of the uk, a northerly breeze bringing in the cold. So we start sunday with a widespread frost, itll be a colder start for the southeast of England And East anglia as The Cloud breaks, lowest temperatures likely to be in Northern Scotland at minus seven celsius. And there could be some icy patches around too. Still a few showers first thing, although many places will be starting dry and sunny, cloud will tend to increase, we will see a few more showers make out in the morning, and theyll turn more widespread in the afternoon some of them heavy with hail, Sleet And Snow mixed in there, as well. Itll be another cold day, temperatures typicAlly 6 8 celsius, maybe a touch colder than that across Northern Scotland, a touch milder than that across southern parts of england. But the damp weather coming into Northern Ireland by the evening on that Weather Front there, Thatll Slide its way down into wales, the southern half of the uk. But a frosty start on monday for many, particularly cold for northern England And Scotland where we have the clearer skies. For the most part, monday here should be dry and sunny, just a few showers near some eastern coasts. Should brighten up through the day in Northern Ireland, but stays quite cloudy through wales, the midlands towards southern england, some patchy rain and early in the morning, it could be a Touch Wintry in the midlands as we engage some of that colder airfirst thing. Temperatures will be a notch up on monday, but still cold for the time of year, around 8 10 celsius. Now looking further ahead, weve got High Pressure turning to dominate the weather through the week ahead, and that means the winds will be light, therell be some Morning Mist and fog patches. Youd expect it to be dry underneath an area of High Pressure may not completely be the story, though. Theres a risk of a few showers around, especiAlly during the first half of the week. Many places will be dry with sunshine, a little less cold by day and night. Good morning.
