Dozens of people snowed in in a North Yorkshire pub for five days. Water and electricity cut off. Airports in disarray. Schools closed. Chaos on the roads.

This is Britain coping with the snowy and icy weather, and temperatures of below zero for 12 consecutive nights since New Year’s Eve in some areas.

As the bitter cold snap comes to an end, many will hastily breath a sigh of relief.
