- A quarter of a century on from the first appearance of a weather forecaster on television, the great and good of the BBC's weather presenters through the years gathered to celebrate 25 years of TV forecasting. What is the collective noun for a group of weather presenters? A cloud? A warm front?
Anyway, it's all jolly good fun, with the very first presenter, George Cowling, recreating that first weather report in as authentic as possible 1954 style, before the assembled meteorologists spoke warmly about their time in front of the weather boards, concluding in a wonderfully appropriate choice for a birthday sing-a-long.
Featured weather presenters included: George Cowling, Tom Clifton, Philip McAllen, David 'Dixie' Dean, John Parry, Danny Armour, Bill Bruce, Trevor 'the weather' Baker, Norman Ellis, Tom Kelly, Bert Ford, Graham Parker, Peter Walker, Don Maunder, Jack Scott, Keith Best, Barbara Edwards, Michael Fish, Bill Giles and Ian McCaskill.
Clip taken from Nationwide, originally broadcast on BBC One, Wednesday 10 January 1979.

To current BBC weather presenters: please bring back the magnetic symbols, they were so much fun! 👍😊
They've weathered well.
Michael Fish and the hurricane of 1987! I still like and respect him.
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.
The grammar, the clothes, love it
People spoke so much better, and dressed so much more smartly, back then.
Lucky to have known Graham and his wife Margaret as they were friends of my parents having lived in the same village
BRILLIANT !
The sun has got his hat on
Hip hip hip hooray! ☀️
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.
I grew up watching Trevor Baker every teatime on Southern Television.
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!
6 years later, the forcast became much more advanced with computer generated maps...
They aren’t as glamorous as the ladies who do it today!😂
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.
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.
Trevor The Weather! #TrevorBakerAllWeatherShow
Get the aran jersey out cold ⚡🥶
Still get the forecast wrong!!!!!
I bet they spend a lot more, to get it wrong today.
45 years later and they still don't get it right 😂.
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%😂
Yay first comment
