Lucy and her producer Sarah Stolarz have been talking to Greek businesses and people across the country.
We hear from businesses in Athens about fears that capital controls may mean pensioners struggle to pay for their medicines.
We get a range of views on the crisis from across the political spectrum, with economic analysis from Aristides Hatzis, Professor of Economics and Law at the University of Athens.
Plus Lucy reports on the impact of austerity in the countryside, from Argos, a town 100km southwest of Athens, where agriculture is the main source of income.
