Writer Neil Gaiman has been criticised after he admitted travelling more than 11,000 miles from New Zealand to his house on Skye in breach of Scotland’s lockdown rules.

Writing on his blog, the American Gods and Good Omens author said he travelled to Scotland so he could “isolate easily” after he and his wife Amanda agreed they “needed to give each other some space”.

He described how he flew “masked and gloved” from Auckland Airport to Los Angeles (LAX) and then on to London before borrowing a friend’s car and driving north to Skye.

Only essential journeys are permitted under lockdown rules in Scotland, with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon stressing the message north of the border is “stay at home”.
