Stunning video shows frozen bubble forming in sub-zero temperatures

As the recent cold snap dusted landscapes with snow and frost - a reminder that the freezing temperatures can also lead to stunning sights on a smaller scale.

The footage, filmed by X user TornadoTitan, shows how sub-zero temperatures can help create bubbles with a difference.

The short video demonstrates how a -5.4C air temperature can turn a bubble from a solution of water and washing up liquid into a frozen transparent orb in just two minutes.

Ice crystals can also be seen forming across the iridescent surface of the bubble.

The sight came during a sustained cold spell across the region.

The coldest spot in the west of the the Anglia region was nearly -10C in Woburn in Bedfordshire, on Wednesday evening, and Santon Downham in Suffolk recorded a temperature of -7.8C on the same night.

That made it the coldest night of the 2023-24 season.
