The bank holiday weekend looks particularly tricky before higher pressure may move in next week. Met Office Meteorologist Alex Deakin breaks down the weather for the May bank holiday weekend - which looks unsettled, particularly in the south due to a low-pressure system, with a mix of sunshine and showers, and warm spells.
