Ireland is boycotting Eurovision 2026 due to tensions with Israel over the Gaza war. This move is the latest in a series of actions by Ireland against Israel. Meanwhile, in the UK, the cast of Rivals series 2 was spotted filming in Corsham, Wiltshire, and Bristol, putting these towns in the spotlight. Additionally, there has been no government sign-off for the new £63m Shotley Bridge Hospital announced in 2025. Lastly, first-look photos and a clip of Russell T Davies' new LGBT drama, Tip Toe, have been released.

Ireland's boycott of Eurovision is part of its stance against Israel's war in Gaza, reflecting deeper geopolitical tensions between the two nations.
