Hello, it's Sunday the 22nd of August and thanks for joining me for the latest on travel and destinations from the Greenlist and the travel desk of the Independent.

This week there's another traffic light review. I don't know exactly what changes will be made, but I can guide you through the practicalities.

I'm going to talk about travel in the former East

Germany, 32 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, and while Foreign Secretary Dominic

Raab is in some trouble after his holiday in Crete, if you don't have any pressing matters of

location and you haven't been jabbed, somewhere perhaps from France, and you're unvaccinated,

so you're self-isolating, Well, even if France were to move to

green, which I think is unlikely, you would have to continue to self-isolate. People coming in from

Turkey. Yes, if it does go to amber, even if you've got both jabs administered in the UK,

then you're going to have to see out all of your quarantine.

I don't think we are going to see any countries moved to the red list with large numbers of British people affected. I think probably if we are going to see big effects, it's

probably going to be with Morocco, which would be a great, great shame. But the way to think
