“It was probably the most stressful three days of my life,” Napper said. “You didn’t know how long it was going to be for. It could have been a month, or it could have been a year – which it was.” Tom Napper/Supplied Napper ended up stranded in New Zealand for a year. But Napper soon realised New Zealand wasn’t the worst place to be stranded during a pandemic. “It was the choice between having a load of green space in Balclutha and being safe from Covid, or going back to a tiny central London flat with my housemates with no outdoor space.”
