Film on tonight (CH4) starring Stephen Graham and Jodie Comer about a nursing home through the Covid pandemic.
Looks a tough but good watch, will certainly be recording.

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..
yeh, looks interesting, Stephen Graham often chooses roles that are thoroughly depressing but good :)
there was a bbc2 thing a while ago which looks sort of similar, James McAvoy and Sharon Horgan, funny in places, and then reaching for tissues at other points, was sort of good, bit too close to home to be enjoyable in places.

well that was a thoroughly depressing way to spend a Sunday evening, I guess that's the point, just 2 hrs :(
Reminds me of Band of Brothers, I had seen it before, the missus hadn't, the penultimate episode episode where they go to the concentration camp, as it ended, she just about managed to say "can we watch something funny now".
I might have to watch a Ted Lasso now!

Yes, imagine having to do it for real, day after day through what we've just been through.
No doctors coming, no PPE and the ill and infected just being sent back to you to die.
Yup, depressing indeed.
Awards coming Jodie Comer's way I'm sure - but maybe better placed with the people doing it for a 'living'?...
There was one 'scene' that seemed a good 20 minutes or so as a single take and I'm not sure the camera left her, going from room to room and trying to deal with it all.
Heartbreaking stuff, you really felt you were there with the poor woman.
