Spare a thought for the BBC's occasionally unpredictable weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker, who was sent to Braemar in the Scottish Highlands on Friday for the BBC's weather reports, just in case it wasn't as cold in the region as people said it was. It turned out it was. Job done, the shakermaker was preparing to head home, only to find his flight had been cancelled – because of the bad weather. Observers who suspected he was being sent out into the cold as some kind of test after he gave a colleague an on-screen one-fingered salute (he's got previous, more of which here) will be sent into overdrive by this latest revelation. "Sorry plane's been cancelled," BBC News chief Kevin Bakhurst tweeted him. "Hope you can find a hotel room. Thanks very much for today – very good coverage." And mind the cold – you don't want that finger getting frostbite.
