‘Faced with the fragility of existence, I realised positivity was a choice’. Words from Dr Stu, who was one of life’s very good eggs. A family friend, support and my first ever interviewee. Thinking of his family🤍 ulani0.wixsite.com/mysite/post/dr…

Bristol Balloon Fiesta has launched its 2025 event, which is happening in August. The Fiesta has faced a lot of challenges in recent years, but with a new sponsor and some exciting new attractions, organisers are looking forward to soaring through the skies this summer. We found out all about it on ITVX: tinyurl.com/5fp4kua5

Cheltenham Festival is a big boost to the local economy and a hit with punters, but what does it look like for those looking after everyone? Georgia Rowley is 24 years old and started working at The Jockey Club at Prestbury Park through a graduate scheme. She now looks after The Orchard, a big outdoor area at the heart of Cheltenham Festival’s tented village. She spoke to us about what the busiest week of the year looks like for her and her staff.

Calling all ballroom fans✨🕺🪩 @bbcstrictly favourites Amy Dowden and Carlos Gu are heading on tour with their new show - Reborn. The show celebrates the joy of dancing and is coming to the West Country next month. Amy and Carlos visited our studio this afternoon to tell us all about what you can expect from the tour, and a little bit about their own journeys too. Catch the interview on our programme at 6pm. And remember- keep dancing! #Strictly

Tragedy ‘must never be repeated’ say families of track workers struck by train itv.com/news/wales/202…

Over on ITVX, our reporter Robert Murphy sat down (and swam) with Alphonso Archer, who’s training to become the first Jamaican to swim the Channel- for a cause close to his heart. Alphonso says often he’s the only swimmer at his training lake in the Cotswolds that isn’t white. He wants to show black people why they should learn to “respect the water," although he understands the issue is complex. You can watch the full interview here: bit.ly/3X3FP7M

Had such fun out and about in Dorset this Boxing Day. Some inquisitive spectators keen to ask why I wasn’t getting in the sea. I thought that would take reporter involvement a bit too far on a self-shoot, but there’s always next time!🤣 @itvwestcountry itv.com/watch/news/swi…
