>> it does actually. so, um, lord wilberforce , who is the lord wilberforce, who is the person that we give all the credit to for getting rid of the slave trade? and you know, worked so hard. that's what the british should be known for working hard to abolish the slave trade . um, his sideman was slave trade. um, his sideman was lord buxton , who was related to lord buxton, who was related to my husband and their portraits up the gallery . and up at the portrait gallery. and he is a descendant of my husband is. >> i never knew that buxton. >> i never knew that buxton. >> so, you know. and i really love penny's doing . you love what penny's doing. you know, reality is, is there know, the reality is, is there are 50 million people are still 50 million people being today in the . world being slaves today in the. world and so let's stop with the apologising and get on with stopping those people from being slaves. let's stop. what's going on now . and britain is not like on now. and britain is not like america, you know, we have a very multicultural, diverse there is you know, i don't i just don't i have too many black friends and i live in this world. and the racism in britain is britain is the best place to be. it really is the best place to be. so stop getting our children to feel that they've got inherent guilt and all of

this rubbish move on. and this rubbish and move on. and let's proud of what we did to let's be proud of what we did to aboush let's be proud of what we did to abolish . abolish slavery. >> well, that's what penny's talking about, because when we talking about, because when we talk it seems talk about slavery, it seems like much of a sensitive like too much of a sensitive topic brits discuss where topic for brits to discuss where americans, they want to protest, they want to have it out there where british people, we have that of thing. we know it's that kind of thing. we know it's there, but we don't to there, but we don't want to address and i feel like it's address it. and i feel like it's time get the time to get rid of the controversy. let's all controversy. like, let's all educate ourselves, even black educate ourselves, even as black people. for black people. i think for black people, like for me, i didn't really know that britain was heavily ending the heavily involved in ending the slave trade. all i learnt about in school was martin luther king nelson mandela, and there needs to be a more well rounded topic for . for any colour. >> many british sailors lost their yeah fighting to their lives. yeah fighting to end yeah you know, so end slavery. yeah you know, so there should be a monument, but obviously we can't forget that a lot people been lot of people that have been through people'sfamilies through it, people's families that have been through it, the trauma stays forever. >> what you the slavery? >> yeah, course, but the >> yeah, of course, but the trauma is i do think that trauma of is i do think that maybe in britain i in we don't

have you have no one living who was a slave. you know, the slave trades are still going on then. but if you, you know, i just i think we, we've got to start to be more positive, more proactive and the victim kind of culture that we're trying to instil in people is it takes you nowhere. it has no positives . i do agree it has no positives. i do agree with that. >> but at the same time i do realise i personally don't like to say i'm victim of being a to say i'm a victim of being a slave or whatever. but then i do meet other black people who very much still hold that trauma. and then i will never kind of dismiss them in that sense. i say it's valid because as each of their own, some people do feel happened their feel like it happened to their family do carry it from family and they do carry it from generation generation. black generation to generation. black people paying the people are still paying for the ramifications of slavery today, so we can't ignore that. in that sense, when people say it. but i do believe the conversation needs from victimhood to needs to move from victimhood to how we can move on as a society. >> tanya, i get i get your point as well. but what i'm saying is that people that have gone

through people that have through war, people that have gone through cultural things that have happened in our cultures, you know, generations back by that. so of back are hurt by that. so of course, filter course, it's it does filter through . and we've got to through. and we've got to remember that of as well remember that side of it as well . think we have to . but i also think we have to look at the positives of what's happening now. look at the positives of what's hapyeah.g now. look at the positives of what's hapyeah. okay. >> yeah. okay. >> yeah. okay. >> so much. all three >> thank you. so much. all three of really to see you of you. really good to see you this and we'll be this morning and we'll be catching in catching up with you later on in the show . now with january catching up with you later on in the show. now with january in full , do you know how much full swing, do you know how much vitamin d you need to get through the darker months? well we're talking a we're going to be talking to a doctor to the bottom of that. >> but next we're talking >> but up next we're talking about christmas about 12th night and christmas decorations . so will you decorations. so will you be abiding to the rules and taking them or not? i haven't ah .

cake all year round . so it was a cake all year round. so it was a massive hit. i, um, i couldn't believe how busy it was. we are the christmas cake that we served was just immense. so yeah, the 12th night doesn't. it? doesn't include us because obviously we keep christmas all year round and we went and got loads of christmas decorations for the whole year. the other day. so we've ordered all our stock for the year, so we'll get really nice goodies through the year too , here which will be year too, here which will be fab. >> do you get people from overseas? coming in because overseas? um, coming in because obviously christmas is at different times. well, it's not a different times, but you know what mean. different what i mean. different days. right different days. yes. do you of people from you get sort of people from overseas yeah go on, carry on. >> yes . because we're on. >> yes. because we're in ironbridge, we get a lot of tourists as well. so and obviously i always get of obviously i always get lots of different year different stock through the year . so the tourists that come . so all the tourists that come from overseas, they'll um , from overseas, they'll get, um, they will come get an they will come and get an ironbridge decoration for them to take home because i think

2nd. is that 2nd. the superstition is that leaving beyond leaving them up beyond these dates taking down dates or taking them down earlier, brings bad luck. well, who knows? who knows ? who knows? who knows? >> i mean, what if. what if the 2nd of february comes and you've had to work and you forgot? >> for me, that's a little bit late. i feel like, yeah, february might little bit late. i feel like, yeah, feb late. might little bit late. i feel like, yeah, feb late. but ht little bit late. i feel like, yeah, feb late. but do little bit late. i feel like, yeah, feb late. but do let little bit late. i feel like, yeah, feb late. but do let li1knowt too late. but do let us know what you make of that. it is 12th or yesterday was 12th 12th night or yesterday was 12th night. the night. you should have taken the down now, is. down by now, that is. >> it's couple of days >> no, it's a couple of days between friends. >> mhm. let us know what >> mhm, mhm. let us know what you think. now isjanuary. you think. now it is january. we're talking about new year new us.the we're talking about new year new us. the excitement from pre—christmas and that feeling that year has faded. well that the year has faded. well we're with january aren't we. >> january is renowned for being the most depressing month of the year. the most depressing month of the year . it's the most depressing month of the year. it's probably the most depressing month of the year . it's probably because it year. it's probably because it goes for about 254 days, and the lack sunshine and lack of sunshine and vitamin d in uk doesn't help, yes, but in the uk doesn't help, yes, but it turns out over a third of brits are actually in the dark about vitamin d and how it's not just january when we should be taking those sun elements. joining us now is jp from the

health and food supplements information service. doctor nisha aslam . nisha aslam. >> how are you? very good to see you this morning. so as brits, are we actually deficient in vitamin d? should we be doing something to get more in our system? >> so absolutely. so our new report that we've published on the ipsis website reveals that yes, we are deficient as a nation. and as you said, peter, it's because we rely on sunlight to make vitamin d in our skin and we don't get much sunlight in the uk, particularly in the winter months. so that's a big barrier to forming vitamin d. um, you can get vitamin d from certain foods , so oily fish , um, certain foods, so oily fish, um, eggs. but as a nation , again, we eggs. but as a nation, again, we don't love eating oily fish. so again, that's a barrier to getting enough vitamin d. so as brits, we are prone to a deficiency , particularly in the deficiency, particularly in the winter months. >> and what about the talk constantly about you have to wear sun cream all the time and, you know, put factor 50 on your face if you're going outside. does that stop some of the vitamin d coming in? i know that

you know sun creams work, but is there a period of time , a few there a period of time, a few minutes that you shouldn't have anything on to get the vitamin d? does it deter ? d? does it deter? >> so the research is >> so i think the research is quite mixed actually. so some papers suggest that actually it makes no difference. and then other research suggests that actually sunscreen does block vitamin d production in the skin . personally, i think sunblock does prevent the production of vitamin d in the skin , but i vitamin d in the skin, but i think spf is really important and i always advise people to wear it every day because you want to minimise the risk of premature ageing. skin cancer. so you must wear your spf every single day . single day. >> so if you are somebody that say can't afford certain foods that that are rich in this, supplements is there, you know, some can't afford supplements , some can't afford supplements, what would you recommend for somebody that doesn't really know what to do? and it's winter time and they're not eating the right foods they're not at, right foods and they're not at, you know, full vitamin d. what do you recommend? >> to have , um, foods

>> so try to have, um, foods that rich vitamin d. so that are rich in vitamin d. so that's oily fish. that's things like oily fish. and the government does recommend that we have two portions , but not portions a week, but not everyone the taste of everyone enjoys the taste of oily fish. >> what oily like mackerel. >> so like mackerel, salmon . oh >> so like mackerel, salmon. oh i love salmon. >> that would right. so >> that would be all right. so you as well? we'll you like salmon as well? we'll be so salmon's okay be fine. yeah. so salmon's okay but then mackerel know but then mackerel i don't know i don't taste of it. >> um, so then it comes back to taking a multi—vitamin, a multimineral vitamin multimineral and a and vitamin d, depends on the dose of d, so it depends on the dose of vitamin that have in the vitamin d that you have in the multi—vitamin. it's ten multi—vitamin. so if it's ten micrograms, which that's the official guidance in the uk then you're fine. otherwise you should take a separate vitamin d supplement . supplement. >> um what about prawns? the prawns count as an oily fish . prawns count as an oily fish. >> i love prawns too. i don't, i don't think they do sufficient vitamins. no. so it's really things salmon, mackerel . we things like salmon, mackerel. we need that effort. need to be making that effort. >> . >> okay. >> okay. what >> okay. what about. >> okay. what about. sorry i have the school have to ask this. the old school generation, . dad's generation, mum and dad. dad's watching again from australia. hi, you know, they hi, dad. so, you know, they don't always . they're not keen don't always. they're not keen on supplements like on supplements and things like that. >> and they wouldn't have taken

them, would they. >> and they're like, well, you know, how you to a know, how are you going to get a vitamin in this hard capsule. how do we sort of break that stigma as well? >> looking at the >> i think maybe looking at the numbers know that a third numbers so we know that a third of are deficient in of brits are deficient in vitamin have seriously vitamin d. so we have seriously low levels. think perhaps low levels. and i think perhaps thinking about the health risks. so you have low vitamin so if you have low vitamin d levels, you know, gp, i see levels, you know, as a gp, i see people with lots of people coming in with lots of symptoms, symptoms. so symptoms, vague symptoms. so fatigue and low energy levels loss of hair, low mood, so i think convincing people that if you want to feel good within yourself, taking yourself, then taking a supplement is the way forward. and also minimising risk of and also minimising the risk of serious conditions . so serious health conditions. so with , you with severe deficiencies, you can end up with bone conditions , can end up with bone conditions, right. that increases the right. and that increases the risk things like fractures. risk of things like fractures. so think we think so i think if we think about mitigating risks and mitigating those risks and really supplements are the way forward. in addition to a healthy diet. healthy balanced diet. >> people who get >> okay. so for people who get very by vitamins very overwhelmed by vitamins and supplements people , i supplements and by people, i mean we had our producer, mean me, we had our producer, sophia this morning. she got out all her on the desk all of her vitamins on the desk in of her, and she's got in front of her, and she's got supplement pouches and these supplement pouches and all these vitamins up. i wouldn't

vitamins stacked up. i wouldn't even where to start. for even know where to start. so for people who are just very overwhelmed whole thing, people who are just very overvwould d whole thing, people who are just very overvwould your whole thing, people who are just very overvwould your numberle thing, people who are just very overvwould your number one ing, what would your number one takeaway to feel takeaway be? just to feel healthy ? healthy? >> so it is overwhelming. honestly it's overwhelming. and i myself have all my supplements lined up and i forget to take them. keep it basic , them. so i think keep it basic, get multi—vitamin, get a multi get a multi—vitamin, get a multi mineral oil then and make mineral oil and then and make sure that it has enough vitamin d in it. if doesn't a d in it. if it doesn't buy a separate vitamin d supplement, omega threes are also good to have because they're anti—inflammatory. they're found in oily fish. so we don't consume enough through food. and they're really really good for brain health. heart health. so go for an omega three and then probiotics . you may have heard probiotics. you may have heard of them. you know the good bacteria and fungi in our gut. they're important gut they're really important for gut health. but also to help lift your mood to have a robust immune system. so go for a good probiotic. so multivitamin is multi minerals vitamin d love omega three. >> it's still a long list. >> it's still a long list. >> long list okay. >> it's a long list okay. >> it's a long list okay. >> if you just went >> what about if you just went outside. even though it's winter. even though we winter. even though it's cold we

encourage outside . encourage people to get outside. will well? will that help as well? >> i as a gp want >> do you know i as a gp want people to go outside and experience it's good for people to go outside and expe mental it's good for people to go outside and expe mental health. t's good for people to go outside and expe mental health. justood for people to go outside and expe mental health. just looking your mental health. just looking at greenery. so absolutely do it . be put spf on. you . be safe, put your spf on. you know it's not clear how much sunlight you need to make enough vitamin d, so do go out in nature, but do wear your spf . nature, but do wear your spf. >> okay, really, really good advice there. thank you. doctor needs some really to good see you this morning. all moved to dubal you this morning. all moved to dubai. always option. dubai. that's always an option. but sps but wear spf. but where sps but wear spf. thank doctor needs thank you. doctor needs a. really to see now . really good to see you now. sticking to the health theme january also time for new january is also the time for new year's resolutions. you year's resolutions. have you made a resolution? no, no, i haven't taken the christmas tree down either. >> well, no. >> well, no. >> so you're a little bit behind. yes. it's all about ditching the old bad habits and bringing new. whether bringing in the new. now whether it's the festive it's a detox from the festive pefiod it's a detox from the festive period to the period or a fresh start to the new january is often the new year, january is often the time people refresh their lifestyles. >> but diets and workout classes aren't the only way. with new alternative methods to lose weight improve wellness on weight and improve wellness on the yes, a mixture of

the horizon. yes, a mixture of unconscious persuasion , unconscious persuasion, neuroscience, modern psychology and behavioural science can gently retrain the mind to change the way you think and feel about food and yourself . feel about food and yourself. that was a lot to say, let alone think of. yeah, and we're delighted to be joined now by creator pod program , creator of slim pod program, which does sandra which does just that. sandra roycroft davis, how are you ? roycroft davis, how are you? >> i'm very well, thank you. >> i'm very well, thank you. >> so, sandra, tell us a little bit about all of this because there are a lot of long words there. neuroscience and unconscious persuasion. how is this going to help people lose weight this january ? because weight this january? because whether we like it or not, there is conversation about is a big conversation about diets, january ? diets, isn't there? in january? >> absolutely . um, and let's be >> absolutely. um, and let's be clear, diet eating doesn't work long terme. otherwise people wouldn't be doing it year after year after year. so it is it's literally, um , you know, the literally, um, you know, the whole thing is , is really not whole thing is, is really not just about what you eat. it is

so much about why you eat, uh , so much about why you eat, uh, in order to lose weight . long in order to lose weight. long terme. uh, we it needs consistency and it needs to. you need to break the old habits . need to break the old habits. um, but the old habits are so difficult to break because they're ingrained in your neurology . and that's where the neurology. and that's where the whole neuroscience thing comes in. >> can i just ask a question, though? and i've always wondered why there's so much focus on what eat and what we don't what we eat and what we don't eat. actually, are we eat. and actually, why are we not just encouraging people to be on top of what you're be active on top of what you're talking about being active, just makes you make better choices overall. so you might not eat everything correctly. see, i don't believe in diets because i think diets . don't believe in diets because i think diets. i remember someone telling me the first three letters of diets says it all. um but obviously you can't sustain it long terme. so you're right about that. it's not just about what we eat, but why are we not just encouraging people to be active? activity creates active? because activity creates better habits all round ,

better habits all round, mentally and physically . and mentally and physically. and less focus on on. >> i mean . the thing is , >> i mean. the thing is, everybody is encouraged to, to, um, to, to move more. and that is really , really important in is really, really important in so many ways. but it has to become a habit. uh you have to get the feel good factor from it. you have to want to do it, not feel you have to do it . uh, not feel you have to do it. uh, you know, all movement is exercise wise, but we live such a static lifestyle and this is where my slim pod program comes in because it works within the brain in, um, it reverses , brain in, um, it reverses, resets and retrains your old habhs resets and retrains your old habits so that you can then, uh, you know, you can be consistent with your new habits because consistent agency is the key. and it's the thing that's missing, uh, so much of missing, uh, with so much of this, uh, it really is. if people could be consistent with their health, healthy eating and

lifestyle habits, then there wouldn't be a problem . but our wouldn't be a problem. but our habhs wouldn't be a problem. but our habits are created, um, in childhood, um, and then we spend half our lives trying to change them. and that's where the difficulty arises. and . also, difficulty arises. and. also, you know, we have to consider people that can't move and can't you know, be active , um, and you know, be active, um, and that side of it as well. >> but i do definitely think that promoting activity in some way is a really, really good way forward . absolutely absolutely. forward. absolutely absolutely. >> i mean, we get there are so many people protein activity and it and it is a key thing. it really is. but then when the winter months come along, a lot of people just resort to, um , of people just resort to, um, to, you know, lying around. and same with january , exactly the same with january, exactly the same with january, exactly the same thing. uh january does everybody starts january with great intentions. but then , as great intentions. but then, as i've found over the 15 years that i've been doing this or

that, i've had the online program, uh, everybody comes to us when they can't keep it up after, you know, after 4 or 5 weeks, some really good tips there. >> thank you so much. sandra roycroft dave, it's very good to see you this morning. now, if health isn't one of your focuses this year , perhaps love could be. >> now you might be familiar with the spanish tradition to eat 12 grapes as each bell strikes at midnight on new year's eve, which is meant to help you find love in the new yeah >> yeah, there's been some amazing videos this week online of people do just of people trying to do just that. those 12 bell that. 12 grapes in those 12 bell strikes, it looks very, very difficult. supermarkets difficult. and supermarkets worldwide even faced worldwide have even faced a shortage grapes . as we shortage of grapes. as we approach the end of the new year with lots of people desperate to find 2024. find love in 2024. >> so if you've missed out on your grapes, our next guest might be able to help founder and eden of sorry and ceo uh, sarah eden of sorry eden. sorry entered into adoption and celebrity matchmaker . yes, karen mooney is matchmaker. yes, karen mooney is what i meant to say. karen

position. and the council, as well as nottinghamshire fire and rescue service are out today helping people in those difficult situations. well thank you very much. >> there in nottingham. and thank you for showing us michael's home as well and send him all of our love. it's a very british, uh, react in there to, to flooding and protecting his own home. they're making do and mending, but should it even have to case that you have to to be that case that you have to protect own home and build protect your own home and build your flood defences? your own flood defences? very very an very difficult. you all have an opinion let us know opinion on that. do let us know at vaiews@gbnews.uk com at home. vaiews@gbnews.uk com let's to meteorologist let's speak now to meteorologist john kettley. very good to john kettley. john very good to see you this morning . so many see you this morning. so many people commenting in our inbox on email and also on twitter saying this seems to be happening so much more regularly than what we've seen before. why is that ? is that? >> yeah, that's probably absolutely true. actually, we do seem to be getting it worse each year that goes by. uh, we really need to go back to probably about 2000. i think you're chapman's to johnson there down in newark , mentioned 2000 as

in newark, mentioned 2000 as being a record breaker as far as the autumn winds and rain were concerned. uh, but we have actually seen a very, very wet end to this past year , and end to this past year, and that's continued into the start of january as well. so we've seen a very wet year. we've seen the wettest year since 2012. it seems to be a cumulative effect. we're getting more and more of these extremely wet years, autumns or winter. these extremely wet years, autumns or winter . sometimes autumns or winter. sometimes it's the earlier part of the year as well, or into the summer even so, they are becoming more common. that's all symptomatic, of course, of the warming world. the warming, which we the global warming, which we talk the time. this the global warming, which we talk been the time. this the global warming, which we talk been talkedie time. this the global warming, which we talk been talked about. this the global warming, which we talk been talked about now s the global warming, which we talk been talked about now for has been talked about now for about past 25 years, and it about the past 25 years, and it continues to get ever worse. but of course, global warming isn't always going to be the same template year after year. we've seen at the same time, we've seen at the same time, we've seen some very hot summer weather, and equally, we've seen some wet summer some very wet summer weather too. it does seem to be that too. so it does seem to be that we get the worst conditions dufing we get the worst conditions during the autumn and early winter. and that's the sort of thing that we've seen in the

pushchairs, it's not pushchairs, you know, it's not where you would expect this to happen everyone was happen because everyone was watching fireworks and this watching the fireworks and this altercation and it's altercation happened and it's just it's the knife. crime in this country has become out of control, and the people that are not just dying of the crimes , not just dying of the crimes, but doing the crimes. now, a 16 year old child has been taken in. it's so worrying and it's so hurtful and it feels it just feels too close to home. yeah too close to home. >> that is what strikes you, isn't it, tommy? is the ages isn't it, tommy? it is the ages that talking about here. that we are talking about here. i mean, when see the i mean, when you see the pictures it's pictures of harry pitman, it's a boy. yeah, and boy. it's a child. yeah, and sadly, even younger sadly, it probably even younger than that. >> um, look, you're going to speak andre from who's speak to andre from damage who's working or formerly from damage who's knife crime. who's working with knife crime. so have a more so he'll he'll have a lot more of than us. of an insight into this than us. but the sad thing is, this isn't like you said, this isn't a gang scene. this is primrose hill. this is a view spot, like you said, where i've gone with the. and i've gone with pram and pushed the pram up there and all that. and so you go with your family and you think you're

going so this going to get a view. so this isn't like, well we don't know what situation don't what the situation is. we don't know backstory know enough about the backstory of the boy who actually committed what's committed the crime. but what's so so many so sad is there are so many different factors that are leading towards very young people why is people carrying weapons. why is that happening? is that that happening? why is that happening ? why did this happening more now? why did this boy the need to take a boy feel the need to take a knife to primrose hill on new year's that's insane . year's eve? that that's insane. and that's the heart of the problem. >> you know, parent, >> and you know, as a parent, your fear is on both your biggest fear is on both sides , right? you know, about sides, right? you know, about your child carrying something like that or doing this terrible act , but also like that or doing this terrible act, but also being like that or doing this terrible act , but also being the parent act, but also being the parent of being having fear of your child being in the wrong place at the wrong time and something happening and it's getting very, very, very scary. >> and sadly, it's the kids that are sweet and lovely that get caught up in it because they're not reading the situation. they're not from that street background. we grew in east background. we grew up in east end london. not saying we end of london. i'm not saying we we're part of any kind gangs we're part of any kind of gangs or but could see what or crimes, but we could see what was around you or crimes, but we could see what was feel around you

or crimes, but we could see what was feel younround you or crimes, but we could see what was feel younround feelyou could feel you could feel the kind this is all kind of hold on, this is all just getting bit just suddenly getting a bit hairy. get it. hairy. let's just get out of it. let's just go home. hairy. let's just get out of it. let'sjust go home. um, hairy. let's just get out of it. let's just go home. um, but the kids that are kind of oblivious to at to that were just there at primrose hill watching the fireworks. give someone an fireworks. maybe give someone an awkward at awkward look. someone looks at him. they see him as a soft target. and target. it's horrible. and what's sad is bad decision what's sad is one bad decision of that knife, one bad of carrying that knife, one bad decision that knife. decision of using that knife. and its split moment . peer and it is its split moment. peer pressure society , pressure influence society, influence stuff, and everyone's life has changed. no one recovered. it's horrible . yeah, recovered. it's horrible. yeah, really, really, really scary times . times. >> right. let's go to the guardian now. a new generation now jodie foster mbe. she's never been scared to say her mind. right. she said gen z they can be really annoying now obviously the problem with this statement she might be right. but the problem is that gen z will say that the older will probably say that the older generation are really annoying. so we've got both sides here. what are your thoughts on that? i can completely agree with her. >> and it's not just the gen z that are really annoying for me. i put a lot of the blame on the parents of the gen z because

from the long covid, which he did have for over the past four years. he suffered from a heart attack and but still, it just feels battle most feels like a battle that most people was going to people felt like he was going to be okay. and, you know, my heart just goes out to her a lot and absolutely does. just goes out to her a lot and absolutely doesthink you're >> and i don't think you're alone. feeling alone. stephanie, in feeling emotion, think, we both emotion, i think, well, we both felt didn't we? yesterday felt it, didn't we? yesterday when i think felt it, didn't we? yesterday whepost i think felt it, didn't we? yesterday whe post itself i think felt it, didn't we? yesterday whe post itself on i think felt it, didn't we? yesterday whe post itself on instagram 1ink felt it, didn't we? yesterday whe post itself on instagram was her post itself on instagram was very, emotional. i very, very emotional. but i think you're right that so many people, let all with think you're right that so many peoplidocumentariesl with think you're right that so many peoplidocumentaries and nith think you're right that so many peoplidocumentaries and talking those documentaries and talking about caring for derek and the challenges that that had. and i think where she's been such a devoted we all feel like devoted wife, we all feel like we've of watched them we've kind of watched them go through this together as a family, all this, family, and we all feel this, this loss. is. this loss. it is. >> and i think as well, i think she's shone a light on carer in general because i think those are kind of like the unsung heroes when it comes to these kind of situations. and the fact that financially, she that financially, i think she was paying a lot to look after him and just all that kind of stuff, the physical and the mental and the emotional side of it, i think it's not to be underestimated. and i think

that's why many people have been left heartbroken by this. >> and let's not forget, you know, she was caring for derek. she was also the mother to the children, having look after she was also the mother to the chilchildren.ing look after she was also the mother to the chilchildren. and look after she was also the mother to the chilchildren. and whate after she was also the mother to the chilchildren. and what they're the children. and what they're going through at a really traumatic seeing their traumatic time, seeing their father decline that . yeah. father decline like that. yeah. um, she was mum, wife, um, so she, she was mum, wife, work , working, of course. and work, working, of course. and now she's had to she has to become dad as well. and honestly , i can't think of a greater pain and confusion that she must be going through. and obviously our thoughts are with her, her whole family and derek, of course, is there's so many kate's around the country in the sense there's so many. >> and i think that's why she was so vocal about it, because there's so many families whose lives have changed due to long covid and other long terme illnesses , and i think that's illnesses, and i think that's what she wanted. the public to be aware of, there's just be aware of, that there's just so there's so so many carers and there's so many families who will go through similar things day in and day out. so as you can imagine, both the entertainment
