TAKING CALLS ON 0808 5 92 95 00. TEXT 80295. ZOOS A wildlife park in Yorkshire remains closed after a man died when he entered a tiger enclosure and was attacked by the animal. The incident has prompted debate about the role of zoos and safari parks in modern society. Is there still a place for zoos and safari parks in 2026? BIPOLAR DISORDER People who suffer recurring bouts of depression should be routinely screened for bipolar disorder, according to the charity Bipolar Scotland. Research suggests more than one in five people with recurrent depression may actually have bipolar disorder, while experts believe the condition is significantly underdiagnosed. Have you been through that experience? What do you wish people understood about bipolar disorder? INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL Flights have been disrupted and travel advice updated after a second attack in two days on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport in Saudi Arabia. The latest strike comes amid escalating regional tensions and has led to flight cancellations, diversions and warnings for travellers. Is international conflict changing the way you travel?
