Trying to find the government phonics videos used during Covid

During Covid, my reception aged child had to sit a watch a phonics video on YouTube everyday. I believe it was issued by the government. It was extremely boring but VERY effective!
Does anyone know what I’m talking about - I want it for my youngest.

Was it the same video every day or different every day? Either way you might well find it/them on here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP_FbjYUP_UtldV2K_-niWw

No, but you could try Mr Thorne.

It might have been Read Write Inc because the labour government were in bed with them previously.

Was it ‘Letters and Sounds?’ That was what we used. Comes up as a YouTube channel if you google it.

Ruth Miskin’s Read Write Inc? It’s a pile of shite and thankfully DC’s school have ditched it.

Oak Academy?

Different schools will have used different things so you might have to ask the school what they used. I teach Reception and we didn't use any Government videos (I wasn't aware there were any official videos, but can only imagine how dull they must have been). We made our own videos.
