  • Summary

  • In this 6-part series, comedian and activist Mark Thomas, in his typical style of drawing attention to things the government might rather we forget, talks to essential workers about how they carried on, continuing to hold things together, while the government, in the words of Boris Johnson was ’totally fucking hopeless”. Mark asks what changed for them, what stayed the same, and what the future holds.This week firefighters, cleaners, and carers , amongst others, talk to Mark about how they worked to help their communities through Covid 19. Workers have gone the extra mile for a long time covering the gaps caused by austerity and with the advent of the pandemic they have been asked once again to head to the frontline and make that extra effort.Mark's previous podcast collecting working peoples testimony was for the Wellcome Collection - Mark Thomas’s Lockdown Check Up - which followed NHS and care staff through the first lockdown has now been put into the Wellcome Collection permanent archive.www.markthomasinfo.com
