I write this from my cosy bed with a big mug of tea after a hugely hectic week. Yesterday was spent filming the 4th NHS film, where I met the lovely Mr and Mrs Shah (see photos under this post) who live in sheltered housing in North London. They entertained us all day with lots of stories (Mrs Shah used to be a primary school teacher) and sweetly demonstrated their daily routine of cooking traditional Indian food together.
Mrs Shah is a hugely social person and as I filmed her at the hospital she literally couldn’t move an inch without having a gossip with one of her pals. Although the hospitals I film in are full to the brim of people interacting there is also a feeling of loneliness and isolation that sometimes hits me.
