Tonight’s BBC Upload with Adam Crowther brings you a mix of stories and poetry from across the West.

Neal Mason shares a dramatic poem about the loss of the 'SS Flying Enterprise, 1952', while Harry Ward adds a spooky twist with 'Don’t Fall Asleep'. Diane Simmons delivers a beautifully concise flash fiction piece called 'And I Love', and Tom Mason explores fathers and sons in 'His Father’s Footsteps'.

Finally, James Brinsford closes the show with 'Flood', a moving poem about grief. Stories, history, and creativity – all from local voices.
