Gray Ja Vu

BBC News
About this episode

Another day, still no sign of Sue Gray... There’s confusion over when Sue Gray’s report will be published (and whether it will be as detailed as people first thought) after the Met Police asked for “minimal reference” to the events they are investigating. BBC Political Correspondent Nick Eardley helps us make sense of the latest Gray delay.

And all the partygate developments mean it’s been a while since we've chatted about Covid. The BBC's Clive Myrie (who’s been reporting from inside an intensive care unit in London) and our Health Editor, Hugh Pym, talk through how hospitals are coping and look at the latest data.

Today’s Newscast was made by Daniel Wittenberg with Georgia Coan and Ben Cooper. The studio director was Emma Crowe. The assistant editor was Sam Bonham.
