Award-winning US comedian Alex Edelman talks about how lockdown has changed his life.

With nowhere to go and nothing to do for 12 months, comedian Alex Edelman has had a lot of time to waste. And waste it he has! Although it hasn't been all bad...

With lockdown changing all our perspectives on what's important, Alex Edelman reflects on how things have changed for him and what he now truly values.  He takes a personal look at what life's really about now that the comedy clubs are closed and he can't go anywhere, and investigates how much his existence has been improved by the arrival of a new flatmate: his girlfriend.
