Two-part special documenting the biggest challenge the NHS has ever faced: the Covid-19 pandemic.
Hospital: Fighting Covid-19 combines intensely moving personal stories with provocative and honest interviews with the clinicians in charge of dealing with wave after wave of Covid patients. Across the two episodes, lives are changed forever by the virus as it marauds through the community served by the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust.
I was part of the team that cut the two episodes and directed from the edit, working with an incredibly committed and talented team of filmmakers. We turned the films round from the start of filming to transmission in approximately seven weeks.
