The staff can now resume their five-month stint at Port Lockroy, a former whaling station that has become a tourist attraction visited by around 20,000 people during the summer season.During their time at the site, the four have given up running water, a flushing toilet, wifi, and can only speak to their loved ones for 10 minutes a week.

Ms Corbett, in charge of running the gift shop at the site's museum, was a newlywed when she embarked on the role."Who wouldn't want to spend five months working on an island filled with penguins in one of the most remote places on the planet?" she said. The 23-year-old will deal with approximately 80,000 cards during her time on the job, which are mailed each year from the site to more than 100 countries.
