A group of MPs have been talking about gaming and whether they need to do more to help people who are addicted.

They heard from James Good, a former gaming addict, who told them how he once spent 32 hours gaming "without eating, sleeping or leaving his room".

Mr Good, who now works with the Game Quitters support organisation, said it led to him dropping out of university and had affected every aspect of his life.

He shared his experience of gaming and talked about how excessive gaming can harm young peoples' studies and socialising.

Vlogger Jack Edwards said there was an "endless universe of possibilities" in gaming, and social media means that "there's always someone to talk to, there's always someone awake".
