Cafes, pubs and restaurants must close from Friday night, except for take-away food, to tackle coronavirus, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said.
Night clubs, theatres, cinemas, gyms and leisure centres have also been asked to close "as soon as they reasonably can".
Mr Johnson said that, at present, "we need to keep people apart" - but that the situation will be reviewed each month.
The government is to pay 80% of wages for employees not working, up to £2,500 a month, Chancellor Rishi Sunak says.
