Do I owe my employer unpaid overtime due to Covid19

I was classed as a key worker at the start of this pandemic. My hours were reduced from 26hrs a week to roughly about 15hrs. We all still got paid our contracted hours and was never put on furlough.
From september we are going back to working our normal contracted hours... but my boss seems to think that if we cant get our jobs done within our hours then we will owe our employer unpaid overtime due to the time off we have had as paid.
Surely this cant be right?
