Receiving furlough money on 2 jobs?

I have been on furlough in my main day job since April. In the past couple of months I've started to work 2-3 days a week, so I'm being paid for those days and receiving 80% furlough money for the remainder of the days I don't work.
Since September I've also taken up a part time job on evenings/weekends (outside of my regular work hours), which was up to 23 hours a week (paid hourly). But since the November lockdown that has been cut to 10 hours a week as a direct consequence of the lockdown restrictions. Would I be eligible to receive furlough money for the hours I'm not working in my 2nd job as well? Or would this have an impact on my eligibility to receive furlough from my main job?
Any help is much appreciated.

If both jobs are independent of each other, there is no reason why you cannot be flexibly furloughed in both. It is entirely up to your employers whether they furlough you, and your furlough for the second job would be based on your pay under the CJRS extension rules rather than the original rules.1
