Documentary shows man's descent into Covid conspiracies
Gary Matthews was a talented artist and photographer, sociable and well-liked - a familiar face in Shrewsbury.
However, years ago his friends noticed that he was getting into conspiracy theories - and fell for Covid pseudoscience when the pandemic hit.
In January of 2021, at the age of 46, Gary caught the virus, and died.
Now, a film is being made about how he got caught up in misinformation.
The documentary is called 'What About Gary', and it's been made by Gary's cousin Tristan Copeland.
