Our Liverpool: heavy snowfall across the city

Hello and welcome to our second Our Liverpool of the day.

We've seen heavy snowfall throughout Liverpool and Merseyside today - very cold, but it has made for some stunning pictures from our photographers. Did you manage to get out and enjoy the snowy sights at all, or was the snow more of a nuisance?

Today we've also heard from the BBC on who's going to be representing the UK when Eurovision finally arrives on the Waterfront in May. It's Mae Muller, who you might recognise from the smash hit Better Days from a couple of years ago as well as the music video for Grace Kelly by Mika surprisingly enough.

Metal detectorist finds 800 year old medieval treasure

Detectorist Paul Jones was out exploring around Pensby and Thingwall when he dug up an almost complete silver brooch. A later assessment determined the brooch was probably made between 1200 and 1300.

Her sister said she "can't even begin to describe the pain and heartache we have gone through since losing our beautiful Katie."

The quaint little town John Bishop calls home

You'd be mistaken for thinking John Bishop still lives in Liverpool given his broad scouse accent, but the comedian actually lives down South in the countryside after a stint in a Cheshire mansion which he was forced to sell due to the government's HS2 plans.

Their sprawling estate (which their family shares with their horse Dolly and Angus and Milo, their two pigs) also has some beautiful views over the countryside.
