In this week's episode, people across Scotland update us on how their lives have been changed by coronavirus. We take time to celebrate lockdown birthdays, and there’s a family reunion that has been a month in the waiting. We come up with creative ways to mark a hen do - without the bridesmaids - and get tips on how to take our summer holidays at home. We also look at the pressing issue of people’s mental health in isolation and the little ways we can all stay positive. From China, there’s an inside look into how the country is gradually opening after strict lockdown and we check back in with our frontline staff, where there is positive news. We also find out how the animals in Edinburgh Zoo are coping without human visitors. Finally, there’s a celebration of the many communities across Scotland who are coming together to help those in need, from handwritten letters to the elderly to a community potato growing project.
