I’ve added some more faces to my rogues gallery database of UKUK The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom (UK) or Britain, is a country in Europe, off the north-western coast of the continental mainland. It comprises England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. TV weather presenters. I’ve now got 190 of them, and I would say that there are still some more of them out there to add to it. Interestingly over 55% of those are female. There’s a bit of fuss about it this year, since it’s now 70 years since George Cowling presented the first in-vision forecast on TV in 1954, whatever that means, beating the first newsreader to it by several months. A wee bit too young to have appreciated George’s approach, but I’ve seen a fair few of them have a go, for good or bad since then.
