In this piece, I think through some of the responses to the COVID-19 crisis in British popular culture, particularly the significance of the turn to one of the most prominent domesticity experts in mainstream British television: Kirstie Allsopp. I consider what it is that the nation appears to find particularly comforting about Kirstie as a public figure who emerged in the context of, and formed her domestic goddess celebrity persona through, articulations with austerity culture. I argue that the turn towards a nostalgic domesticity within austerity culture in the United Kingdom has intensified during the COVID-19 crisis, paving the way for more discourses which accept escalating inequalities under the guise of a particular notion of White nostalgic femininity, as well as British blitz spirit, invoking a form of patriotic stoicism and nationalistic sentiment.

保持精湛并继续前进：危机中的怀旧和家庭文化

在这篇文章中，我想通过对英国流行文化中COVID-19危机的一些回应，特别是转向英国主流电视中最杰出的家政专家之一：柯尔斯蒂·艾尔索普（Kirstie Allsopp）的意义。我认为该国似乎特别感到欣慰，因为作为一个公众人物的基尔斯蒂（Kirstie）在紧缩文化的表述中脱颖而出并形成了她的国内女神名人角色。我认为，在COVID-19危机期间，英国紧缩文化中的怀旧文化转向更加激烈，这为更多以白人怀旧女性气质为幌子，接受不平等现象升级的话语铺平了道路。英式闪电战精神，
