This was an extraordinary film to make - on the front line in the battle against coronavirus in Gloucestershire. I was keen to show what's happening in Gloucestershire rather than the bigger hospitals in the big cities that have already had the cameras in for national news. This is the reality of how the NHS is dealing with Coronavirus on our doorstep. Thanks, as ever, to my cameraman Mark Leach.

The vast majority of us who get infected with Covid will not end up in hospital but for those that do it's a frightening experience, even though treatments are improving all the time. The NHS in Gloucestershire allowed Steve Knibbs onto the wards because they wanted you to see what hospitals are dealing with every day. And we hope that the dedication of the staff and the courage of the patients will inspire you.
