Do we drink more?

On the show today Deputy Editor David Marley is joined by addiction expert Ian Hamilton to discuss our relationship with alcohol during coronavirus.


As pubs prepare to open this weekend, are we drinking more or less booze than before the lockdown? And how does being cooped up at home affect us and what dangers could that bring with it?
