The series jumps towards Christmas and the run up to the second lockdown.
By this time there was a winter surge. The government wanted to remove Covid restrictions for Christmas. Only there was a winter surge.
Also the government's shortcomings throughout all this.. It lack of preparedness for the pandemic when it was emerging westwards from China. Then there was the ministers own breaches of the rules that eventually became public. Boris Johnson was a serial offender and has shown no genuine remorse.
The rampant death toll in care homes because people with Covid were sent back. Then spread it to others.
It was a messy conclusion. Maybe they should had gone the polemic route and given both barrels to Boris Johnson and his cronies. That includes the press who were in effect Johnson's fan club at the time. Just check all those 'Brave Boris' headlines when he himself would not comply with the rules his government introduced.
The government gave a lot of money to newspapers in the form of advertising. Keeping them going as no one was buying them during lockdown.
I did like the anti Covid people being shown as idiotic. I think in 2021, every other person I met was a Covid sceptic. All seemed to have gone to the same conspiracy websites and thought they were clever.
Some even going to bereaved families and telling them their loved ones died of something else and it was not Covid.
