Most of the UK spent yesterday wilting and sweating profusely in the mini-heatwave that hit our shores yesterday.
Including Brad Pitt, but he actually brought his uncomfortableness on himself - all in the name of Hollywood.
The actor was snapped filming in Falmouth in Cornwall, where temperatures reached 30C and the locals flocked to the beach to soak up the mini heatwave...

But not Brad, 47, who instead bundled himself up in lots of layers, a thick winter coat and what appeared to be a plate of armour on his left arm.
He also rode into the harbour on a ship with similarly-dressed people and snow covering the rails on the deck.
They looked very solemn and dirty as they sailed into the Cornish port but thankfully they didn't scare off the natives, who knew why they were there.
Can you hear me at the back? One of the crew instructs the rest of the boat
Because there's only one reason to dress up for Arctic conditions at the height of August and that's for a film.
Which is exactly why Brad was sweating beneath his layers as he filmed scenes for his current production World War Z.
The film is based on a Max Brooks novel about a global war against zombies.

Brad plays Brooks who scours the world collecting the stories and experiences of those who have survived ten years after the human victory over the world wide zombie epidemic, referred to as World War Z.
Can I put some shorts and a T-shirt on now please? Brad looks like he's escaping the ship for a break...

Hundreds of extra recruited from the local area have been on board with Brad as Russian refugees or zombies.
A source said the locals were unsure at first whether or not they had a Hollywood A-lister in their town until filming started.
They added: 'It’s definitely Brad. He seems to be rallying the troops and getting them all psyched up for war.
'It’s funny as well, because apparently most of his lines are just gibberish that they’re going to dub in later. I think he’s meant to be speaking Russian.'
Brad has also shot scenes for the movie, which is due out next year, in Malta, which doubled up as Israel, the only country in the world in the story to close its borders and initiate a national quarantine against the zombie outbreak.
