A “dry and cloudy” Christmas Day is expected across most of the UK with “no snow or frost” likely, the Met Office has said.

The King, Queen and other members of the royal family are due to attend a morning church service in Sandringham so the mild, dry weather will be welcomed by well-wishers waiting to greet them.
