Great Drought of 1976: what happened and what was the impact on Britain?

PIC: TIM BOW/APEX 23/07/2018
The hottest summer for decades has created an outbreak of a rare and beautiful phenomenon - glowing seas.
The temperatures have caused a surge in bioluminescent plankton around the British coast.
Tim Bow was stunned by the spectacle at Aberavon Beach, Port Talbot.
The light occurs due to a complex chemical reaction, known as bioluminescence.
Organisms such as jellyfish, squid and fireflies generally use the production of light as a defence against predators.
