| Dear reader,
The Government’s new “Stay Alert” message is now in full force and adverts are continually springing up to remind us of the importance of “controlling the R rate” to save lives. Sarah Knapton, our science editor, explains precisely what the R rate is in this excellent piece and analyses how reopening schools might impact on it.
Last week, there was the first significant development in the case of the death of Harry Dunn for some time. Interpol has issued a red notice for Anne Sacoolas, the American woman charged with his killing. Harry’s mother, Charlotte Charles, spoke to The Telegraph about how it has given her hope that justice will eventually be done.
Finally, it is now 20 years since the death of John Gielgud. In 1997 Julie Kavanagh was asked to write a biography of the legendary classical actor, and quickly became good friends with him. She recounts the time she spent getting to know him in this lovely, insightful, piece.
