  • Summary

  • In this 6-part series, comedian and activist Mark Thomas, in his typical style of drawing attention to things the government might rather we forget, talks to essential workers about how they carried on, continuing to hold things together, while the government, in the words of Boris Johnson was ’totally fucking hopeless”. Mark asks what changed for them, what stayed the same, and what the future holds.In this episode Mark asks Key Workers how they managed with social distancing. The best way of beating Covid 19 is not catching the virus, a task that eluded the Prime Minister, the Health secretary and the Chief Medical Officer all at the same time....They may not be the best bench mark for how easy it is to catch the virus but you get the point.... From cleaners to bus drivers, waiters to carers Mark asks workers how they held it all together, kept the country going and stayed safe?Mark's previous podcast collecting working peoples testimony was for the Wellcome Collection - Mark Thomas’s Lockdown Check Up - which followed NHS and care staff through the first lockdown has now been put into the Wellcome Collection permanent archive.www.markthomasinfo.com
