The Lockdown Debate, Channel 4 Sunday, 18th October at 18.00 (UK)

[One]

ITN Productions is producing a fast-turnround debate, Live: Divided Britain: The Lockdown Debate for Channel 4 this Sunday, 18th October at 18.00.

Chaired by Channel 4’s News’ Krishnan Guru-Murthy, the live, first ever programme commissioned as a lock down debate on terrestrial tv is an hour-long. It will see politicians, business owners, doctors and scientists debate the critical issues facing the UK as we face the most intense period so far of the Covid-19 pandemic.

A specially commissioned poll will give the most comprehensive view of the response to the pandemic and whether people believe current lockdown measures are too severe or not strong enough; whether people favour a so-called circuit break and their opinions on where the UK’s economy is headed as well as the impact on physical and mental health.

Not sure if it required own thread. We shall see perhaps.

Actually, having its own thread is a great way to focus the conversation - thanks for starting it

Thanks Tintin we could only hope.

But unfortunately after cringing through the first 5 minutes, I quickly realised it was going to be an absolute waste of fin time. Obviously (and rather predictably), the lie wasn't even going to be questioned.

Unless anybody who has watched the entire thing knows any different, I wouldn't waste you time.

This thread is not even worth the bytes it is using up. Feel free to delete it.
