We asked our Email Jury what their biggest fear is and if hospital staff after almost dying but warns service is stretched

Being stuck high up in a burning building or trapped in a vehicle if I had an accident. I love flying! Judi

Martin, Aberdeenshire

Today’s generation has a long way to go before they grow up. Everything seems to upset them and if they don’t agree they have a tantrum. Bill Bell, Nottingham

My biggest fear is spiders, even though I know there is no good

reason for it. Lorna Smith, North

Yorkshire

I used to be terrified of flying until I flew on a budget airline and found an information booklet on my seat. It explained what all the different noises on a flight meant. That helped. Margaret Gibb, Fife

Face up to your fears instead of running away and expecting someone else to protect you. Fight your own battles! Davie Kerr,

Lochaber

My biggest fear is drowning. When I was learning to swim at 15 a person pulled my back legs from under me and I went right under the water, it was very frightening. Ever since I have been afraid to go on a ship.

Margaret Brown, Rutherglen

If I was meant to fly I would have wings. Allison Scotland, Roxburghshire

My greatest fear is forgetting where I have parked my car and walking around trying to find it.

Lorraine Anderson, Edinburgh

I fear being trapped. When I was six I fell off my bike into a ditch full of nettles and couldn’t get out as the bike was on top of me.

Elizabeth O’Regan, Lincoln

To lose one of my children or grandchildren. I don’t think I could ever recover. Jean-Claude Huntzinger, Lochgelly

The younger generation is no different to what they were when I was 16, more than 50 years ago.
