    Hey, they actually have Sealand on there, most people don't even know it exists, and its almost, kinda-sorta in the right spot.

    In the old days the ole BBC weather used to look like left panel, then later they changed it to middle saying that this was more representative of the way Britain actually looks because they view it from a point with perspective. There was a lot of people saying that it distorted the UK map and I think thats a fair point too. So my third image is how I expect to see BBC Scotland do its weather in the future

    Theres some great maps where the areas have been sqished and magnified to allow for certain stuff like amount of pollution generated where Africa is tiny and the US is very large etc. These are great to look at. The one I liked the most was called the world according to people from Sloan Square - a small upmarket area of London who are perceived as seeing the whole universe center around them. Obviously the square was outrageously distorted along with the Ascot horse racing etc. It was pretty funny.
