Lockdowns and restrictions have an effect on everyone's mental health. It has turned many into paranoid hysterical fear driven humans who can't think rationally anymore.

Teresa May

Suck it up buttercup

Great actor. Completely out of touch.

Career not going too well? 🤔

Nonsense

remember him being interviewed on GMB early in the crisis. he paid for a private test at a time when doctors / nurses couldn't get tested despite him having NO symptoms. Rich privilege.

I'm sure he can afford a top shrink, jeez!

More propaganda. Go away

Jog on!

Let me guess? Because you is black?

“the world actually probably needed the lockdown, too.' Easy to say when you’ve got a few quid Thanks for your constructive input Idris. 👍

Not reading the article, but why/how was he tested if he had no symptoms?

Celebs don't matter anymore

Mediawhore

Traumatic when you’re asymptotic 🤦🏻‍♀️ give me a break

I wonder during the same period how many would say Sky news had a traumatic experience on them equally as well 🤭🤪

Nope, that'll be the media and government putting the fear of God into people

I think it affects luvvies far more than everyday folk ..but then again most things do

Right!

Sorry bro

Having a bad cold these days...

Just because people have ‘millions in the bank’ doesn’t mean their mental health just all of a sudden recovers. Fuckin idiots la

Thought it was supposed to effect the lungs the most?

Who cares.

I think he is trying to explain his recent quotes that “ every time I take a breath I have suffered racism”. I think his fan base, me included, have gone off him. He is trying to win them back.

Not surprised it’s scary times and an unknown quantity ..anxious because we take it seriously and anxious because others don’t

Poor celebrity

Jesus Christ. James Bond don’t like having the flu.

Yeah he outset himself as a massive racist unlike terry crews 👍🏻

I didn't get it but had to spend best part if 4 months inside as I'm vulnerable I've dealt with it

Had the Corona Virus? Are you a celebrity who has gone out of the limelight? So phone .

I'm so iĺl from corona virus. Phone a doc. No! Phone an ambulance. No! Phone Sky News! Yep. Idiot.

ab= any churchill cqoutes ?

Poor Luvvies.

worldofmera 😳

Was it coronavirus, or smashing Sophie Trudeau that scarred him

While he was knocking off Sophie Trudeau 🤣 JustinTrudeau

Of course it did!

Justice for butchering Roland of Gilead. You have forgotten the face of your father.

Aww bless. I'm sure his millions in the bank will give him some measure of comfort when it comes to being able to pay his bills during this ongoing crisis. Yes I know money doesn't guarantee mental health but I'd rather be in a mansion than a cardboard box.
