#8: Coronavirus: Time will come good

As the coronavirus lockdown is further extended here in the UK, it’s hard to know when or indeed how our lives will return to any sense of normality.

In the meantime we wait, and we hope, and we tune in for news of better times.

In this episode I reflect on the importance of journalists – the good ones – who inform us, widen our worlds, and in times of crisis can so often find just the right words to lift our spirits.

One of the good ones is Fergal Keane, whose ‘Letter to Daniel’ remains one of the best loved pieces of audio the BBC has ever aired.

I hope this episode encourages you.
