“I found, I would say, the first week and the week before lockdown intensely stressful.”
Ranvir added: “I think it’s because my mum’s elderly and she lives in my house, and I’ve got an eight-year-old, who was seven then.
“The whole narrative then was don’t let children meet their grandparents. Keep everyone apart.
“And in my house, I’ve got the grandparent, the eight-year-old and then I’m going into London working every day.
“So the whole thing just felt like I was going to be the one to implode.”
