Cerys escapes up, upwards and away to the North with ´óÏó´«Ã½ weather presenter, Elizabeth Rizzini, astrophysicist Dr Becky Smethurst and almanac writer Lia Leendertz.

Lia Leendertz shares what we can look forward to in 2025 with her guide to reconnecting with the seasons. She takes us into her garden and shares what we can look forward to in January from skies, moons and the Lord of Misrule.

Weather forecaster and meteorologist, Elizabeth Rizzini takes us beyond the clouds, exploring weather proverbs and regional weather words.

And British astrophysicist and author Dr Becky Smethurst guides us through space and talks us through what we might smell, see or bump into up there!

All of this alongside an eclectic themed playlist of looking up, journeying up into the skies and beyond with music from Jeff Beck, Mae West and Aaron Taylor.
