Hunter Original Wellies available in an array of colours, including Red (as worn by Carol Kirkwood) and Navy Blue (as worn by Alexander Armstrong) on the BBC's Great British Weather.

Last night we saw the second addition of the new 4 episode series on BBC 1 called The Great British Weather at 7.30pm. This live show presented by Carol Kirkwood, Alexander Armstrong and Chris Hollins looks in to the UK’s obsession with weather as well as sharing some weather facts and expelling some myths about our weather too.

Did you know that on average it rains in Britain 199 days a year? That’s 4 days of every week! On last nights episode of The Great British Weather on BBC One, research was conducted in to the myth that cows can predict the weather and will lay down when it is going to rain – the mini experiment included a herd of Jim and Kate Bevans (also known from BBC’s Lambing Live) cows and showed that the cows could indeed get it right and predicted a rain shower before the equipment did! Nobody knows the real reason, but it is believed that cows are very sensitive to changes in wind speed and air pressure and this is how they can tell when rain is on its way.

Also spotted on The Great British Weather last night was the choice of footwear sported by Carol Kirkwood and Alexander Armstrong; they were both wearing Hunter Wellies! Carol was reading Red Hunter Wellies – the Hunter Original Gloss Pillarbox Red Wellington Boots and Alexander was wearing Blue Hunter Wellies – the Hunter Original Navy Wellington Boots; both available from wellieboots.com in store and online.
