With violence increasing across Syria, Up All Night brings you the latest from the country, including analysis from the Royal United Services Institute on the future of the Assad regime.

Ryan Parker from the Denver Post speaks to Rhod about how he broke the story of Christian Bale's private visit to the victims of the Colorado shooting in Aurora. He tells us this was a personal decision by the actor who didn't want the media to find out.
