Seriously, it's uncanny how similar that film's events are to real life.
Someone nine years ago when it was made must've been a prophet.
Yes, the ending is that a vaccine or cure is created.
Someone has got a very sick sense of humour by scheduling the film Contagion on ITV2 this evening.
This is surely misreading the mood of the nation.

Ultimately I assume in such films the virus is defeated, so maybe that is what people need to see.

As has been said, it's one of the most requested on-demand movies at the moment so I'm afraid it's you miscalculating the demand for such content during times such as this.

It's possible for something to be both in demand and in bad taste, athough I don't necessarily agree that's the case here.
A terror attack might lead to a spike in interest in Four Lions but it'd be likely to be pulled if it was scheduled for broadcast soon after.

If you think somebody there was a prophet, you should see the Korean 2018 series that's been doing the rounds on the Internet, because it predicted the Coronavirus with surprising accuracy. It's called My Secret Terrius, and it's on Netflix, although I don't know if they will have removed it by this point:

BBC Scotland has dropped their daytime schedule for the foreseeable. They show education programmes from 10am to 11am and then revert back to SCOTSUS (the never ending repeating barker). They then come out of SCOTSUS for FM's statement roughly 12:30pm till 1:15pm and then revert back to SCOTSUS until 7pm. After that, channel runs as normal.

The only thing worse than wall to wall news is wall to wall "feel good TV" which is apparently what we're all demanding. There's only so much faux sunshine and smiles people can take before it becomes nauseating and clearly, for some, that is already the case.
Well Contagion got 920k for its first part last night so they were clearly onto something scheduling it when they did.

It looks like they're also repeating Still Game from the beginning, starting tonight.
