Television and film production no longer qualifies for UK travel exemption, according to the country’s government website. Those who travel to the UK for production must now self-isolate for a period of 10 days.
Under both the “Television production” and “High-end television production and film” categories, the website now reads: “This job no longer qualifies for an exemption as of 4am Monday 18 January 2021.”
The rules are still a bit different for the UK’s local broadcast channel — those involved in “urgent or essential work” for the BBC do not need to self-isolate, according to the updated guidelines.
One show that could be affected by the new coronavirus travel guidelines is Jason Sudeikis’ excellent Apple TV+ comedy “Ted Lasso,” which shoots in the UK but employs at least a few stars and writers from our side of the pond. Looks like those guys may have gotten in right on time, though...
