Mental Health On the BBC

[TPSA7514]

Very innovative and brave of auntie Beeb to turn its focus onto mental health. Particularly as people self isolate whilst they wait the clanging bells of doom.
I was very impressed with the extensive coverage of this on BBC's Question Time
Excellent stuff and I'm sure it will be covered and referenced in other programmes on the BBC soon

A Question Of Sport could become a Question of coping
Death in Paradise could do a special about having a breakdown in paradise
Etc

Brave?

It's about time there was more about mental health in the media.

It seems to have been neglected recently.

Radio 4 has a lot - it drives me mental.

It's an interesting experiment. Keep people indoors for two months, pump rolling news of disease, death and interviews with sick people at them for 6 hours a day and see if they crack. Of course we have to do the first part, but 15 mins coverage a day is enough to keep you reasonably informed.

Good news and good entertainment would go a long way I think.
