Along the Lines is a conversational podcast started during the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Beginning the first episodes in lockdown, and unable to meet each guest in person, the conversations had to take place along the phone lines.

Each episode is along the lines of... whatever subject/s are interesting and relevant (to the unique guests) at the time of recording. 

In this episode, Dan talks to George Woodger about a few different topics that include...

- How George's hospital is reacting to Coronavirus
- His personal symptoms of potentially having the virus
- Being a Junior Doctor; roles and responsibilities
- Potential long-standing positive changes to the NHS
- Understanding "Do Not Resuscitate" orders
- Is it the patient's or doctor's choice whether to resuscitate?
- Who may not be resuscitated by a doctor?
- The concept of "having a good death"
