Storm Benjamin hit the UK with gale force winds causing travel disruption, and serious flooding feared.

Yellow weather warnings were put in place for London, the south of England, and the east Midlands, Yorkshire and parts of Wales.

The Met Office said flooding, damage to buildings and travel disruption was likely throughout the day.

It comes as a new report has revealed the London boroughs most likely to be impacted by flood damage.

And in part two, freelance journalist Arielle Domb joins us to discuss what the 6-7 meme is and why teachers are fed up of it.
