Help is a 2021 British drama television film about the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom, written by Jack Thorne and directed by Marc Munden.

Tony frequently walks out of the building and wanders the streets to try and go to his mother's house, forgetting that she has died and their home now belongs to another family.

This is made all the worse by a severe lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) with supplies in NHS hospitals being prioritised above homes.

One night, when Sarah is left as the only carer on duty, Bright Sky resident Kenny suffers a serious coughing fit.

Whilst playing Shithead, Tony and Sarah are found by the police, who received a tip-off from some dog walkers who spotted them.

Sarah, in the back of a police car, breaks the fourth wall and warns the audience against turning a blind eye to the needs of others in society, from those in social care to those using food banks.

The film ends with statistics about deaths in UK care homes at the beginning of the pandemic and the insufficient amount of PPE the government provided.

Speaking about the project, Thorne said: "About two years ago Stephen Graham came to me with an idea to write something for him and Jodie Comer.
