With so much of our lives being spent online and so many of our purchases being done from the comfort of our own homes, it can be tough for some businesses to get the business they once did.

One sector that has been written off time and time again is the humble bookshop.

Thankfully they're still with us and so Bobby thought he'd get the perspective of those in-the-know to find out how things have been since restrictions were lifted.

Joining Bobby was:

  • Maria Dickenson - Managing Director at Dubray Books
  • Maurice Earls - Owner of Books Upstairs, Dublin
  • Economist, Jim Power.
