“Good morning all,” she began. “I’m back from my hols and will have the latest UK forecast on #BBCBreakfast all morning. Warm with sunny spells for England and Wales, but cloudier with blustery showers later for Scotland and Northern Ireland.”

Sarah is a familiar face on our screens having worked for BBC Weather since 2008. Viewers may recognise her for presenting the five-day weather forecast on BBC One’s Countryfile. She also steps in for BBC Breakfast‘s main weather forecaster Carol Kirkwood or usual Friday presenter Matt Taylor when they are away.
Carol was missing from Monday’s programme and while the reason for her absence is unknown, it’s likely that she’s simply enjoying the morning off.
The Scottish star has, however, been busy with various projects away from her presenting role on the show recently.

Her new romance novel, Secrets of the Villa Amore, hit the shelves in July and has already become a bestseller. Thanking her fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, she wrote: “Just wanted to say a sincere THANK YOU to you, if you helped make my third book #SecretsofTheVillaAmore a bestseller! I am beyond thrilled. THANK YOU.”
Secrets of the Villa Amore is Carol’s third release and it’s not the first time she’s enjoyed success in her writing career. Her debut romance novel, Under a Greek Moon, reached number two on the Sunday Times bestsellers list upon its release in 2021. Carol’s second novel was released shortly after, The Hotel on the Riviera in 2022.
