I’ve watched it twice (husband fell asleep first time around so watched it again together last night) and thought it was one of their best episodes. The tension in the final scenes was so well done and the musical choice perfection.

That thread isn’t all good news (though definitely better than hoped) - further on he makes the point that high incidental rates make managing admissions very difficult. When you have to convert operating theatres to covid isolation wards then you can’t use them for routine or emergency operations. He also mentions the level of staff absence, pressure on community services, already delayed treatments due to covid that cannot be delayed further, and the huge pressure on GPs to deliver boosters over all else. The system will still be creaking, though probably not enough for the government to do anything about it.
