Bill Giles was born and (primary) schooled in the South Devon village of Dittisham. In 1993 I worked at The Red Lion pub, which was opposite the old school, which celebrated its 150th anniversary that year. The punchline of this story is that Bill Giles didn’t attend. But he sent a lovely letter, which they kept on file. One of the locals that was at school with Bill stood drinking at the bar from 11am until he started to slide down it about 11 hours later.

To current BBC weather presenters: please bring back the magnetic symbols, they were so much fun! 👍😊

[@michaelbyrne5507]

Michael Fish and the hurricane of 1987! I still like and respect him.

[@sharpvidtube]

They've weathered well.

[@Ridgyyy123]

Lucky to have known Graham and his wife Margaret as they were friends of my parents having lived in the same village

[@railwaystationmaster]

BRILLIANT !

The grammar, the clothes, love it

[@BadgerBotherer1]

People spoke so much better, and dressed so much more smartly, back then.

[@Tim.Weaver]

I grew up watching Trevor Baker every teatime on Southern Television.

[@JMoruzzi]

I'm surprised at the ones I don't remember: Jack Scott and Barbara Edwards I remember well, Bert Foord only vaguely - and I didn't know his name until much later - and the two with them not at all.

[@borderlands6606]

Bert Foord I remember clearly, the earlier ones just their faces. From the days when a nice day meant just that, and not impending apocalypse.

Hear Hear!

The sun has got his hat on

[@teddy1066]

Hip hip hip hooray! ☀️

[@Keithbarber]

6 years later, the forcast became much more advanced with computer generated maps...

[@shingitai5882]

They aren’t as glamorous as the ladies who do it today!😂

[@hilaryepstein6013]

Happy Anniversary BBC Weather, even if you don't always get it right. Yes Michael Fish, I well remember the 1987 hurricane which definitely wasn't going to happen.

[@chinnyvision]

Trevor The Weather! #TrevorBakerAllWeatherShow

[@OlafProt]

An entire industry built on basically, both literally and figuratively, licking your finger and sticking it in the air. Still, it’s given the Brits something to moan about for decades.

[@robbflynn4325]

45 years later and they still don't get it right 😂.

[@sharpvidtube]

They say its 80% accurate, but often all I gather is that there will be weather tomorrow, so I'm surprised it isn't 100%😂

[@astra47420]

Get the aran jersey out cold ⚡🥶

[@carolynesimpson6070]

Still get the forecast wrong!!!!!

[@sharpvidtube]

I bet they spend a lot more, to get it wrong today.

[@suz1453]
