He’s probably exhausted

Exactly what I was thinking.

It's hard when you are lying through your teeth.

Completely agree. Sounds really nervous & unsure & also setting us up for extended lockdown

He does look knackered!

Why is he saying that they’re only now working with uk manufacturers of ppi? Surely this was something that has been possible from the start?

He sounds even less confident than usual.

Making me nervous!

Just looked at his eyes, you’re right he does look exhausted.

I've probably missed this being explained but why is the number of deaths lower on a Monday and then higher again by a Tuesday?

The unrelenting nature of this crisis at the heart of government must be off the scale of extreme. I've no time for Boris and most of his bunch but Matt seems to be a good guy trying his hardest in difficult times.

Oxford Project vaccine trials from Thursday. That’s really encouraging.

He's always having to refer to his notes.
I don't trust Rishi Sunak, but he's a much for convincing speaker.

Patterjack the reporting is more difficult over the weekend apparently so they catch up on a Tuesday

I always wonder what he knows we don’t - some have a better poker face than others.

Promising on vaccine/s.

Professor Van Tam always makes me nervous!

Thank you!

Van Tam's no Chris Whitty when it comes to presenting.

Where is Whitty? I know it’s his birthday but haven’t seen him for a while.

I know this is mean but I am sick of the sight of Laura Kuensberg. Are there no other journalists in the UK?

Sit back Peston and stop shouting!

Very twitchy. Probably pulling all nighters in fairness (which he should be)
