c) we are more likely to die if we are diabetic
d) and all the ads from Banks, insurance companies & other businesses, all trying to convince us that they are better than their competitors.
If they showed a few repeat films or something amusing it would probably give those, who have mental health problems, something more positive than worrying who may die next!
It's like the media [especially the BBC] want us to be miserable, suicidal and negative.
And I've never heard of such bullocks than all the banks are behind us and have got our backs......Sure they've got our backs because they had the shirt off them a long time ago...Bloody hypocrites....

I agree and wrote the same about a month back.
It is the constant drip feeding of statistics, death, and illness that is encouraging lonely people in lockdown to suffer depression, because thoughts nourish our minds just as food nourishes the body.
Constant bad thoughts, = unhealthy minds.
I said before that if/when this is all over, it will leave another epidemic in it's place - mental health problems.
Do something you enjoy every single day and stop listening, reading, and talking non-stop about death.

To be perfectly honest, that's the one I seem to watch the most.
Conversely, I might watch one or two BBC programmes (any of their channels) in a week! I can't wait for them to lose their compulsory TV tax funding.

I play Spider Solitaire when I have nothing better to do.
