Britain braced for deadly freeze: Arctic blast so severe it could kill one person every seven minutes, charity warns, with temperatures set to plummet to -15C and yet MORE snow on the way


Britain's big freeze is set to continue for the rest of the weekend with temperatures plummeting well below zero

Cold could kill one person every seven minutes with one million elderly people unable to heat homes, Age UK warns


More snow is on the way tonight after as much as six inches fell in parts of Cumbria


Swathes of the south of England will be hit by 'wintry showers', with at least a dusting of snow


Temperatures will drop to -15C in Scotland and -10C in the Pennines on Sunday night, the Met Office says


The Arctic blast which has swept Britain could kill one person every seven minutes a charity has warned, with temperatures set to plummet even further and yet more snow on the way.

Almost a million elderly people are at risk from the bitter cold as they cannot afford to heat their homes, Age UK warned.

But the big freeze is expected to continue throughout the weekend and into Monday with the mercury forecast to drop as low as -15C following a night which saw six inches of snow fall in some parts of the country.
