Frazzled parents Jonathan Overend (BBC Radio 5 Live) and Deborah James (You, Me and the Big C) hear from dancers, actors and olympians who, just like secondary kids, are missing out on their favourite pastimes. Jonathan speaks to British boxing heavy weight Chev Clarke about how he is processing being unable to achieve his goal of competing at the Tokyo Olympics this year, Strictly star Dianne Buswell explains why she and partner Joe Sugg have been disturbing the neighbours with their dancing, and cast members Lexi and JJ from the hit West End musical ‘Six’ share their tips for staying upbeat when life as we know it is on pause.
