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.With testimony from Amazon workers, carers and a host of other key workers about how they survived work through the pandemic. How did they manage their lives and their work when so many public services had been cut by austerity? Mark talks to firefighters about the importance of humour and care workers about making their own PPE with knicker elastic. 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
