This is a touching documentary following different group of people at how their dementia is affecting their lives. There is. A lot of positivity in this documentary which is uplifting and makes you care of the subjects of the documentary. I hope there will be a follow up.

Somewhat depressing insights
CrazyArty5 November 2021
The 2 part series follows a small group of British dementia sufferers and their families in their daily lives during the COVID lockdown.
You do get some sense of the decline of their abilities but if this had been filmed over a longer period the decline would have been more pronounced, and the show more powerful. Instead it focuses on how they and their families manage with the mundane task of living and dealing with the disease.
Overall the series is somewhat insightful, but its a little depressing, particularly given the young age of some here. It's really not very hopeful. The message seems to be make the most of life while you can. What else can they say?
It's the first of its kind. An interesting but sad insight into this terrible disease.
