The presenter clarified that Diddly Squat has "bovine TB", which doesn't affect people but rather the cattle that live on the farm. It's possible that these sad moments could be shown in Clarkson's Farm season 5, with filming still taking place for the Prime Video series. "We’ve been filming here two or three days a week, every week, for five years. There is currently no word on when season 5 could make its way to Prime Video, but it's likely a return to Diddly Squat could be on the cards in 2026. Clarkson's Farm seasons 1-4 are available to watch on Prime Video – sign up for a 30-day free trial of Prime Video and pay £8.99 a month after that.

In June, Mr Raymond received the Sam Wanamaker Prize, awarded for pioneering Shakespearian theatre. When Mr Raymond and Bishop Gillion first met, at a poetry convention in Borough, Mr Raymond was nearing the end of a prison sentence, attending the convention on a ROTL (Released On Temporary Licence).

The British Pest Control Association (BPCA) has identified the species as a growing concern, noting that raccoons are already well-established pests in parts of Europe and could quickly adapt to UK environments if introduced. Niall Gallagher, technical manager at the BPCA, said: "Raccoons were imported into Germany from North America during the 1930s and rapidly became established across central Europe. "What we’ve learned from this is that once established, raccoons can thrive in our natural environments." While there is no evidence of a breeding population in the UK, raccoons have been identified by the Non-Native Species Secretariat (NNSS) as one of the top 20 species most likely to become invasive over the next decade. Raccoons can live for up to four years in the wild and pose risks to both property and wildlife.

It's also our longstanding position that Hamas can play no role in the future governance of Gaza or any Palestinian state. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also claimed it "rewards Hamas's monstrous terrorism". Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said his country plans to recognise a Palestinian state as part of the two-state solution - that is Israel and Palestine living side-by-side. Carney said his decision was prompted by the "catastrophe" in Gaza, and because he feared the prospect of a Palestinian state was "receding before our eyes". The UK has said it too would recognise a Palestinian state at a UN summit in September unless Israel committed to a ceasefire.

In extreme cases, the regulator can seek court orders to block non-compliant sites or require payment providers and advertisers to withdraw services.The investigations add to Ofcom's existing 11 probes into platforms including 4chan, suicide forums, and file-sharing services. Proton, the most popular VPN app, reported an 1,800% increase in downloads as users seek to bypass geographical restrictions.The Age Verification Providers Association reported an additional 5 million daily age checks across UK platforms since Friday, representing a massive increase from previous tick-box verification methods.
