Oh really? Someone else mentioned to me they were in Bristol. Interesting. But why be at a hotel, then? Unless he doesn’t reside in the property on IOW? I mean, potty break? If you are trying to avoid Covid, you wouldn’t go in to eat lunch, either. Maybe to get take-out?

I don’t think Adam and his incompetent PR realized there’s a big problem with that? You see, Benedict should still be in quarantine because there are no direct flights from NZ to the UK. NextJet dropped him off at LAX which automatically put him on the red list. There are WCs on ferries too, Ben has had his own flat on the IoW for years plus he owns multiple properties on the mainland. Technically he should be confined to one place and not be engaging in any non-essential travel, just ask Dominic Cummings. If it’s for legal etc matters however…
