Can i use the free NHS Rapid Antigen Test for my entry back into the UK or do i have to have the full PCR?

You can have an Antigen test but not the free NHS one.

That's not correct. Unless you have been vaccinated in the UK you have to quarantine when returning from France. I live in France and will have to quarantine for 10 days if I visit the UK as the rules now stand.

To answer several questions, you can have an Antigen test from one of many pharmacies at a cost. I paid 25 euros for mine and you upload it to your train booking as you did going out. You DO have to quarantine for 10 days on return (i am on day 6) and i've been phoned every day. You can of course pay for day 5 early release.

Apologies to one and all. I jumped the gun a bit there. However, there is some speculation that the need to quarantine on return from France will be dropped after a review on 4th August.

Shapps should go back to selling bogus online money making scams.

I read in the paper today that our ministers put France on the Amber+ list because they mistakenly took the figures from the Reunion Island, what a joke, seems they're going to downgrage to amber soon. In several pepers now.

Michael Green...
Raab actually came out with the Reunion link in his comment, clearly not knowing the Reunion was not part of mainland France but an island some 10,000 km away!. Remember, this is the same guy who was unaware of the importance of the short sea crossings from Dover. (See Vossy's link.)

Is it relatively straightforward to get a PCR test in France, prior to coming back to the UK? And if returning on a saturday, what day would you get the PCR test so you get the email in time to show border force.

Yes easy, probably a local pharmacy in most towns......
I had mine on a Thursday, results within couple hours and home on the Saturday

Yes, Thursday is correct. No more than 48hrs technically.

Who have people booked their PCR with before leaving for France, who's reliable as I've heard a few stories where test results are not coming back in time for travel, I've had a look online at a few for the PCR before leaving such a minefield massively differing costs and reviews.
Got the local Medical centers details whilst I'm out there to book the return test only 49 euros.
