In this episode we discuss the story that got the country talking, as one metre looks to be the new normal in England. Another lockdown change is the reopening of the housing market which has brought delight to estate agents and house hunters, though there are some interesting rules they will have to follow. French cinema reached the headlines with the announcement that they would allow kissing to be filmed again - love really is in the air again! In more serious news it looks like the youth of Northern Ireland will be most affected by the upcoming recession, despite news that many industries can open again. Also, the news of the reopening brings its own new danger in the form of Legionnaires’ disease - just when we thought it might be safe to go back to the office. And finally, people have been combating the boredom of lockdown with startling creativity, from famous tv set replicas to simple cardboard cut-outs. Show less
