Sounds like the rubber seal where the roof and the trunk meet is going back, I had the same issue in the summer

Thanks guys..
Does your rubber trim have 2 holes ( I think there suppose to be there )
on the rim that runs along the base of the roof line, quite often there is
water on the cover under where these holes are when I open the trunk/boot
..
It must drip down from these holes, shall I block them, they must be
there for a reason.

It doesn't drip through the holes, the seal over time will sag allowing water to pass through any gaps and drips into the trunk
