In this week’s programme, the Falkland Islands Government sets out its plans to repay loans and interest, and the Maritime Authority carries out a successful rescue at sea. Options for the Fox Bay airstrip are now with Executive Council for consideration, while the Legislative Assembly responds to concerns about LATAM flights landing in Ushuaia.

We also look at the Education Annual Report for 2024–2025, Falklands Landholdings’ positive update on livestock numbers, and the Environment Committee’s decision to pause Gentoo egging licences for a year. Plus, new SAERI research explores possible reasons behind recent changes in Illex abundance.

After the break, we bring you highlights from Falklands Conservation’s art auction, Chile Independence Day celebrations, and a pajaritos recipe with Rodrigo. The Tourist Board announces plans for the 2025 Walking Festival, and we mark Talk Like a Pirate Day.
