Default Planting out runner beans?

Alan Holmes writes

I started to plant out some runner beans which have been started in the
greenhouse, SWMBO has told me there may be frosts which will affect them.

Is it possible there will still be some frost, and what effect would it have
on the beans anyway?

It will kill them. April is a bit early to plant out runners - late May
to June is better depending on when your last frost is.
