    I thought it was a good programme, better than More Fours programme over the last 2 years.
    They covered every type of forecaster, the met uk, the nature observer and the independent forecasts.

    I was disappointed that they didn't get a bit more into the science of the jet stream, el nino/la nina, sunspots (though we at least got something about the latter).

    I would of thought they would have talked to some other forcasters other than the met office. Obvious choice but they mentioned alot of people look at internet for the weather, then why not talk to some of the people who are behind the forcasting.... surely it would have been a little bit more varied instead of just saying they cant go beyond 3-5 days...

    Still i kno wat im askin off santa.... defo a snow machine, pple would rent them like bouncy castles i reckon:D

    The serious flaw was that they didn't talk to any independent forecasters. They kept mentioning the internet and they even had a spot with the presenters looking up some internet forecasts. But they never spoke to any of these forecasters.

    It was a real flaw in the programme and I'm surprised that it was allowed to happen. Basically the whole point of the programme was whether long range forecasting is credible and yet they didn't feature any long range forecasters.
