When the doors to betting shops were closed in lockdown, many asked what this would mean for the UK’s gambling habit.
The pandemic has revealed many things we didn’t know before about how much we bet, and how, in an increasingly digital world, some have moved deeper into crypto-gambling on the “black market”.
In this episode of the Sky News Daily podcast, host Jonathan Samuels is joined by Sarah Grant, a recovering gambling addict; Dr Heather Wardle, a researcher from the University of Glasgow and Tony Marini, an addiction therapist from the Castle Craig treatment centre.
