“We should see pretty much wall-to-wall sunshine across the bulk of England and Wales and a good portion of Scotland.”

It comes after a heat-health alert was issued for most of the country, with people warned not to stay in the sun for long periods and to make sure they are covered in high-factor sun cream.
