Now THAT'S working from home.

The BBC's Owain Wyn Evans took working from home to an entirely new level.

The Welsh weatherman for the BBC tweeted out a video where he covered the BBC News theme song immediately after wrapping up the forecast on the drums. And he absolutely killed it.

"When they said try working from home I didn’t realise they’d expect me to do the music too," Evans posted to accompany the video.

In the video, Evans — who is a weatherman for the show BBC North West Tonight — wraps up a weather report, telling folks "stay safe and I'll see you soon" before sprinting to a drum set. Then the guy just goes nuts on the drums. Like straight-up kills it.

Other people online seem to agree, the tweet racking up some 40,000 retweets since it was posted on Wednesday. Lots of comments below the post were complimentary as well.
