COVID MOT extension - clarification

[Farmboy81]

I can see it taking another 6 months after the extension to get booked into an MOT station.

That was part of my confusion, there's going to be the MOTs that were due in May, as well as the ones that already need to be done in November. So it would sort of make sense for it to just revert to your initial MOT date and you just get it done ASAP rather than waiting until a month before the new date.
