A new TV documentary has revealed just what went on behind the scenes within Welsh Government amid the Scarlets and Cardiff’s Covid-hit trip to South Africa.
The two Welsh regions found themselves stranded in the Rainbow Nation in early December after it was placed on the UK’s red travel list amid the emergence of the Omicron variant.
The Scarlets did manage to leave the country after a few days and ended up going through a ten-day quarantine stay in a hotel in Belfast. But Cardiff’s departure was delayed amid Covid cases in their camp and they had to undertake an extended period of hotel isolation, first in Cape Town and then near London.
