His new doctors didn’t want to take doctor’s notes from America. They wanted to make their own assessment on him. He was in hospital for a …

Man’s final moments in tiger pen as visitors ‘not strong enough’ to stop him | UK | News

She recalled that he requested: “Can you grab a shot of myself with the tiger?” Del subsequently used the gentleman’s mobile phone while he positioned himself with the Siberian tiger visible in the background. Video footage captured by her partner depicts the man chuckling as he asked for “one more, one more, one more”. He then remarked: “Thank you, lady.” The couple then departed the area, and moments later, the man climbed over the safety barrier and accessed the enclosure. Del informed The Sun: “He was completely alone. At first he was dancing on the bridge overlooking the enclosure. He ended up standing next to me. My partner was recording the tiger and you can hear me having this interaction. You can hear him asking for a photo. I took a couple of him with his back towards the enclosure. I positioned the camera so I could get Altai in it with him.” Another park visitor purportedly tried to drag the victim back onto the viewing bridge, but he “pulled away from her” and accessed …

Log in Having explored life in high security men’s and women’s prisons, for its third series, the BBC’s Time is turning its lens on a young offender institution. And with British prisons in an ever-deepening crisis, writer Jimmy McGovern’s relentless and unflinching drama feels more relevant than ever. But when fiction flies so close to reality, does it lose some of its impact? Or do the stakes need to be heightened in order to shock the viewing public? Bobby Bailey (David Tennant) is a guard at HMYOI Alderwick, a secure facility for troubled teenagers, somewhere near Liverpool. His home life, however, is in crisis. He is trying to overcome a drinking problem, and his wife has just left him for another man. In the prison, things are even tougher. New arrivals James (Louis McCartney) and Peter (Ollie McNulty) bring fresh challenges, while a long-standing resident, Christopher (Chukwubuikem Molokwu) is facing identity issues …

Europe delivers final ITER vacuum vessel sector

Europe delivers final ITER vacuum vessel sector

Published by Miika Tikkanen

Fusion for Energy, in collaboration with Ansaldo Nucleare, Westinghouse and Walter Tosto, has completed manufacturing Europe’s final vacuum vessel sector for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor at Cadarache in south-eastern France. The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor’s (ITER’s) plasma chamber, or vacuum vessel, houses the fusion reactions and acts as a first safety containment barrier. With an interior volume of 1,400 cubic metres, it will be formed from nine wedge-shaped steel sectors that measure more than 14 metres in height and weigh 440 tonnes. The ITER vacuum vessel, once assembled, will have an outer diameter of 19.4 metres, a height of 11.4 metres, and weigh approximately 5,200 tonnes. With the subsequent installation of in-vessel components such as the blanket and the divertor, the vacuum vessel will weigh 8,500 tonnes. Each vacuum vessel sector is manufactured in four segments, requiring more than 1.6 kilometres of welding for assembly. Maintaining precise tolerances of less than a few millimetres ensures the seamless integration of internal components, which demands advanced forming and welding technologies. A combined effort between Europe and …

Published by Daniella Wilson

As we career into the last instalment of The Split Up with its final episode airing on BBC One tomorrow evening (Monday 5 October), there are a number of loose ends and dramatic plot lines waiting to be wrapped up. Last week’s fourth episode certainly laid the foundations for some explosive viewing and it turns out that the final episode even surprised its cast. Chatting exclusively to Radio Times about what their own reactions were when they read the script for the finale, Sanjeev Bhaskar revealed: “I mean, when you’re reading it, you just go, ‘Bloody hell!’” Similarly, Ritu Arya laughed: “You go, ‘Oh my god!’” Bhaskar continued: “I think that’s what I kind of really enjoyed about the series, even up until that point, I think it’s unpredictable. When you’re reading a script, half your head is on what you think is going to come up and then it either does or it doesn’t. Danny Ashok as Neal, Ritu Arya as Aria, Arian Nik as Kav, Isobel Khan as Charvi, Aysha Kala as Maya …
