He's not cold - the central heating here is lovely and toastie. No.... it's motor noises he's making .. he has a fascination with Plymouth Barracudas and Ferraris - and something in tonight's show has piqued his interest.... all will become clear at 6...if my - and Lizzie the news ed's - patience lasts that long!!
So the big news is - more trouble for British Airways. The dispute with cabin crew - over their sick leave policy, among other things. The union blames BA - BA blames the union - and as usual, it's the hundreds of thousands of people planning flights next week who suffer. Phil's at Heathrow with the very latest on that one - and we're really keen to hear your views on the dispute. Who's in the right?
It's been a bitterly cold night and though Chrissie tells us the next few days will get a BIT milder, this cold snap is really taking it's toll on the vulnerable. Chris Rogers has been speaking to some of them - and has some good advice on staying safe in this weather.
Liz is on the case of the curious am-dram theft. Who would want to steal the entire costume collection from a theatrical group? And why? Not exactly easy to offload, you'd have thought..... But they have, and it's jeopardising their next performance.
There's another great competition to win a European short trip - and we'll bring you that Bow Street report from Ben that we promised yesterday and woefully weren't able to show you last night.
It's shaping up to be a goodie - so do accept our invitation to join us 6.
