Anyone else knackered by video meetings? |
| It turns out it’s not just us. The constant Zoom chats, Google Hangouts get-togethers and Houseparty happenings really do take their toll, don’t they? What the hell is it about staring and talking at a large screen that’s so tiring? We asked a clinical psychologist, and got some handy insights. Will it make you less tired? A little bit! |

7pm It’s Frankenstein’s monster, actually |
| The Cumberbumble. Big Cumbo. Sir Benny Bumber Bash. What ever you call him, there’s no denying Benedict Cumberbatch’s acting chops. Whether he’s playing Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Strange or ‘Jim North’ in one episode of ‘Spooks’ back in 2003, the man is watchable. Which is why you have no choice but to tune into the National Theatre’s production of ‘Frankenstein’, starring the big man himself and Jonny Lee Miller. |

| It was inevitable that you’d tire of pizza eventually. Now your appetite hankers for the creamy kick that only a high-quality curry can provide. Lucky for you, then, that we’ve rounded up all of London’s best masala merchants still bravely delivering the goods, despite lockdown. Here are our four picks |
|
|
|
| | Benares is one of west London’s finest curry houses. Bring a bit of that garam glam into your living room and treat yourself to its incredibly sophisticated lamb rogan josh | |
| | Starting life as a street-food stand, Spice Box has now put down roots in Walthamstow. Try the jackfruit jalfrezi and wonder why everyone made such a big fuss about meat in the first place | |
|

|
|
| | Part of a mini-chain of much-loved local Indian takeaways, Tiffin Tin is the jewel in its curry crown. There’s a large menu with lots of old favourites, as well as a good vegan selection | |
| | Honour Oak’s Babur has a traditional takeaway option, and also a quasi-fine-dining version. We love the venison hunter curry and the 100-hour marinated shoulder of lamb | |
