I felt like this episode was so beautifully balanced. It showed the many ways that Covid has affected real people, not just because of people getting sick from the virus but all the other side effects. like people not getting medical treatment they need and getting sick or dying, or the isolation that batters our mental health and can even risk someone's life that way. The hard choices we make now that it's been a year and we all want it to be over, but we also know that we have to be safe. How do you balance "if I go out and do this thing can I risk someone else's life?" and "If I don't go out I'm going to lose my mind"? And especially how it has affected young people.
This episode weaved all of these aspects into the storyline. It all felt very natural and not forced, as some TV shows have done. Everything everyone said or did reminded me of real people who have said and done these things. Dr Helen said many things we have all felt at some point.
Excellent script, wonderful acting, and great direction! if episodes continue to be so strong then this might be the best season of the series.
