, particularly western scotla nd, into scotland, particularly western scotland, ahead of it a few showers for wales, western england but it will be dry, some sunshine, a bit more of a southerly breeze, that will bring us more warmth. temperatures in the mid 20, cooler under the rain for scotland and northern ireland, i will move things on into thursday, because that rain justjumps away into england and wales but there is not much rain left at all on that weather front. to the north it is slightly cooler, there will be some sunshine, the winds pick up in the north—west blowing in some showers as well. but ahead of this rain, what is left of the rain we are in the warmer air still in east anglia and the south—east, and temperatures could reach a high of 26 degree, that is probably the peak of the heat over the weekend ahead. thank you. thank you. a reminder of our top story: climate change is here, it's permanent and we caused it — the stark warning from the world's leading scientists. that's all from the bbc news at six, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s

showers in scotland do to become fewer, mind you. a bit of a damp star across wales and the southwest of england, this cloud gradually working its way northwards. more in the way of sunshine across scotland as though stars become fewer, but the cloud will be increasing in northern ireland and northern england, bringing rain and drizzle later on in the day. could be a bit damp still across the north of wales, even across to the north of the midlands into east anglia. but from the south of here, we should get some sunshine through, especially in the southeast of england, temperature is reaching a pleasant 23 celsius, and we could make 19—20 c in the sunshine in the central belt of scotland. that area of low pressure moves slowly into the uk. a few weather fronts on the scene, all pretty weak, mind you. this one here will bring more in the way of showers, better weather into the northeast of scotland. could be some rain first thing on sunday, moving southwards into northern england. find a brightening along as well across scotland and

as nearly all of scotland's covid restrictions are lifted. this show expanding its audience overnight. if we were going to keep to the 200 audience we would, it would be very tough for us, when we heard the announcement we could increase the numbers to 400 it was amazing because the cast, all the cast we had tears from the cast. 400 is still reduced but we think it will keep our audience and ourselves covid compliant. venues, bars, restaurants are no longer having to limit their number, but many are choosing to hang back. this restaurant and bar saying some of the new rules aren't clear. i know a lot of people much prefer the safety of table service, masks when moving round the building, not being crammed in with 40 people round you like sardines. but you could serve people at the bar. we can, it is whether or not they can stand there and drink for an hour, two hours, four hours, we are not certain about that. so we are not going to bother. life in scotland will feel more normal than at any time since march last year but the scottish governme
