It's cold...this is news?

In the Independent this morning, there's an article essentially telling us it's cold in the UK. I'm a bit baffled by the notion that this is news. But near the end of the article, I found this gem:
At Banham Zoo in Norfolk, keepers were trying to encourage a pair of Siberian tiger cubs to leave their covered pen. The animals can survive in temperatures as low as -40C but the 11-week-old cubs have baulked at -4C.

Doesn't that just make ya go "Aw, so cute!"???

I suppose if being cold (in England? In January? Who'd have thunk it) is the best news they can come up with, at least nothing terrible is happening.

If only that were true....

Yeah, I'm planning to watch Demons again; my trouble is I'm always forgetting TV times. I'm too used to downloads and DVDs!
