While another added: “You make the weather forecast agreeable even when it’s bad news. And I’m not even from the UK.”
Another said: “You carry on just as you are mate! You’ve been a breath of fresh air on NW Tonight, and I should mention that my old mum, in her 80s, gets a glint in her eye when your forecast comes on!”
Owain went viral earlier on in lockdown too, smashing out a drum solo to the BBC News theme tune in a full three-piece suit. Not a single hair fell out of place and he finished it by flashing a smile to the camera at the end.
It’s not the first time the BBC News theme tune has gone viral in lockdown either, after all, for a brief stint it was the only tune we heard everyday when we were cooped up inside waiting on another Bo-Jo announcement.
Big up Owain for keeping us all entertained in lockdown, and for the BBC’s theme tune for being the banger we all needed.
