Weather enthusiast Charlie Connelly discusses the origins of our weather-related phrases on Loose Ends. Ahead of his new book, Bring Me Sunshine, Connelly explains how our great-British obsession with the weather can be traced back to the ancient Greeks. From Aristotle to the eighteenth-century dramatist John Dennis through to Michael Fish, Connelly seeks out the moments of meteorological magic that have informed our understanding of the elements.
