brass monkies 

incredibly cold, freezing in fact.
derived from the saying 'it's cold enough to freeze the bollocks of a brass monkey' it would need to be incredlibly cold to bring brass to a point where it would just become so brittle it broke away

'gawd it's brass monkies out there innit?'

Freeze the balls off a brass monkey 

Navy phrase for canon balls. The balls are placed in a round structure called a monkey. The plates had indentations to hold the balls on the bottom layer in place. The base was made of brass. When brass gets cold it contracts and the balls displaced.

It is so cold it would freeze the balls off a brass monkey.

brass monkey 

hard-boiled slang for a burden or handicap, akin to an albatross around one's neck or a mark of shame

"A prison record is a handicap, a brass monkey perched from the back of every man we choose. If the man starts giving us trouble, we simply turn that brass monkey against him. If a man turns from us, we add a full-scale smear campaign to the handicap of his prison record, and the man is ruined for life. Society will accept a man with one brass monkey, like a prison record, but two? Never." "The Brass Monkey," I was a Communist for the FBI, air date 4-9-53
