more anxious and less confident as people, but there have been gains, too. we listen to the birdsong more, we speak to neighbours that we didn't previously know, we are more connected to our surroundings and our communities. for some, the pandemic has meant new roots. sam walker and family moved house for more space. when we were in london, we lived in an upstairs maisonette. we were inside the flat, you know, with no outside space apart from a really small balcony that we had, so that really was the motivation to get a house with a garden. sam is a make—up artist who's seen all her work disappear. it's changed her as a person. before, i had a lot more focus on my work and my career, and that has flipped 100%. you know, so now i realise, you know, where i get my values from, my family and my home. did you feel lonely? a little bit, because i didn't have as many people around me, - because i was used to, _ like, as we were going to school, i was used to having quite a lot of people around me, - and also being in public. for artistjoel "chidi3s" sydenham, the changing landscape of lockdown life has led to shifting perspectives of his own. i don't think anybody knew it was going to go on for a year, so i, genuinely, ifelt like it was going to be two or three months, and then everything would be fine. being forced to slow down has forced me to grow up as a human being, and as an artist, and as a teacher, too. many young people, he says, feel frustrated and even angry about the last year. it is an emergency, it is a pandemic, like, knowing it is unprecedented, and i don't think anybody young feels like they have had a say. they don't feel heard or they don't feel like their opinions have been valued. despite the frustrations, joel is hopeful. i have a strong belief that the world will go back to normal, and all those things, they have just been postponed, they haven't really been cancelled. this spring, we are taking tentative steps towards our old lives and our old selves, without really knowing if either are entirely retrievable. reeta chakrabarti, bbc news, eltham. that's it. goodnight. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster henry bonsu and former trade minister lord jones. welcome both, do say hello to each other, i love it when you do that. hi, henry. hello, lord jones, how are you doing? — doing? very well, good to doing? — very well, good to see you. doing? ve well, aood to see ou. , very well, good to see you. they alwa s very well, good to see you. they always do — very well, good to see you. they always do this, _ very well, good to see you. they always do this, so _ very well, good to see you. they always do this, so it's _ very well, good to see you. they always do this, so it's lovely - very well, good to see you. they always do this, so it's lovely to see both of you greet each other, really good stuff. right, starting with some of the front pages we already have. we will look at the telegraph which says, "the jab is safe, the thing that isn't safe is catching covid," the telegraph quotes the prime minister as he urges the public to get their vaccines following safety concerns in regard to the oxford astrazeneca jab. the metro leads with the eu reversing its decision to suspend the astrazeneca vaccine over claims it caused blood clots — the european medicines agency has confirmed it is a �*safe and effective' vaccine and eu countries will now resume the rollout. the same story is on the front of the guardian, with the paper also reporting that nhs leaders have privately accused ministers of putting pressure on staff to meet vaccine deadlines, while underplaying the risk of disruption to vaccine supply. "sturgeon in peril" is the is headline which reports scotland's first minister "misled parliament" about her role in the scottish government's investigation into alex salmond and the financial times writes former prime minister david cameron lobbied the government to increase greensill capital's access to state—backed covid—i9 loan schemes — months before the finance company collapsed. the paper notes that mr cameron's alleged lobbying attem pts were u nsuccessful. soap, lots of papers to get through, and lots of stories. the main story dominating is the oxford astrazeneca vaccination, and now that you also arejoining the uk regulatory bodies in saying that it is safe. interestingly, actually, lord jones, let's start with you, both the prime minister and the french prime minister and the french prime minister will be having this particularjob tomorrow. particular “ob tomorrow. yes, i think particularjob tomorrow. yes, i think actually _ particularjob tomorrow. yes, i think actually in _ particularjob tomorrow. yes, i think actually in the _ particularjob tomorrow. yes, i think actually in the daily - think actually in the daily telegraph, it's quite nice. if you see where they are coming from, here is a newspaper, this is a paper review, and if you look at the way that the telegraph, their role, you know, they are conservative focus newspaper, they are getting full square behind the prime minister. they are saying he is landing his job tomorrow, but there's income you know, it is safe, but what isn't safe is coronavirus. get this job know, it is safe, but what isn't safe is coronavirus. get thisjob in your arm, and they are really pushing that more than two other things than you would expect from the telegraph, one would be that they have had every opportunity to kick that you again because of that you's shambles. they don't do that. secondly, thejuxtaposition, if you notice where they put on the paper front page all about what ijust said, and you would've thought they really would want to put the boot into nicola sturgeon and as you reported about did she did you not mislead scottish parliament. they find room for that on the front page, but it is quite low down, and it is quite nowhere near as what you might have thought would do about what's effectively the opposition to the conservatives in scotland. so i find that very interesting. what i am pleased about is that at last, there are, they have done away, the regulators have done away with this doubts owned by politicians. it was never the medics who said that the oxford astrazeneca vaccine was unsafe because of possible clotting. it was never the medics, it was always the politicians. you can't help but feel there is a little bit of vaccine nationalism and all of this, and because it's british, it's not french or german, i'm not saying that's all the story, but you can't help politicians for indulging in a bit of that. in the scientist have come to the right conclusion, in my view, you know, the risks of not having it far outweighed by the risks of having covert. interestingly, in the telegraph story, it actually says the spat that the chances of dying from a blood clot or whatever from taking the astrazeneca, the chances are one in a million. where is if you are aged a0 and you catch coronavirus, the chances of you dying are one in 1000. so it's perfectly clearjust on that probability odd, you're infinitely better off by taking the vaccination. i'm very pleased for the good of europe, you know, for the good of europe, you know, for the good of people, for the good of human beings, i am just thrilled to bits, but i think it's well done in the telegraph. they in my view, get the emphasis right and where it should be, and they don't indulge in the normal kick and push that you would expect. the normal kick and push that you would “pect— the normal kick and push that you would owed-— the normal kick and push that you would expect.

would expect. henry, i'm surprised you haven't interjected as such - would expect. henry, i'm surprised you haven't interjected as such just yet, but ijust need to clarify, we will talk about nicola sturgeon in a moment, but wejust will talk about nicola sturgeon in a moment, but we just have to say that the final report hasn't been published yet, such as stressing that, and we welcome like i say, we will talk about that in a moment. let's get your reaction to the oxford astrazeneca vaccination and the metro also looking at the aspect from the european union, safe and effective is that you's verdict. as well as in the uk, henry.- effective is that you's verdict. as well as in the uk, henry. very much so. i well as in the uk, henry. very much so- i agree — well as in the uk, henry.

younger. i am — you are so much younger. i am going to say that is a commentary on how young you are, not the availability of the vaccine. i will take the flattery. i know, digby, the last time we spoke, you are talking, we appreciate that you have a fear of needles and you are talking about how you went and the staff, the nhs staff, they distracted you while you are having it so kudos for

all the front line staff in the nhs for the last year, the nurses, doctors, the care home workers, i think they have been fabulous. but i do think that the problems, the inherent problems with the nhs, the procurements, the administration from of the facilities management, all of that husband found seriously wanting, and its heritage say it, and people get crossfit criticised the nhs at all, but there is this distinction between the front line where they have been wonderful and a lot of that back office, and i think with the delivery of the vaccination, this harmonisation of things, as henry said, i mean, the whole thing has been brilliantly done. and it's also been done with this lovely warm, almost humourous, but certainly friendly smiling way for everything from when they first get in touch to when they put it in your arm. it's ten out of ten, and the nation has risen to that. you can tell the morale of the country has gone up. people are feeling more positive, and a lot of

in niss commend you did refer commend you are so right, which is the ability of this vaccination to get herd immunity, so that the virus dies with us on the vine and therefore it's can grow commit can mutate into can develop, maybe the vaccine is less potent to the outcome and therefore, we need to get so many of these parts of cities that say, oh, yeah, we are not doing it, for loads of reasons, and we have got to get through to those people. we have got to get that, because it is pointless, if we are all going to be protected and then you have got certain cities, you know, where, frankly,
