What do you get when you mix hospital mealtimes and heavyweight bouncers? You get seriously protected mealtimes, that’s what! You also get Age Concern’s new and very funny viral marketing campaign aimed at tackling the problem of malnutrition among older patients in hospitals.

With the help of some of the UK's top comic talent, including Steve Mangan from Channel 4's popular Green Wing series, we have launched a series of short video clips that show how simple solutions – like red trays and protected mealtimes – can help improve nutritional standards on the wards. In one of the clips, Steve Mangan plays a doctor, who tries unsuccessfully to disrupt an older person’s mealtime – think Mr Bean crossed with Mission Impossible!
