We may be losing an hour in bed but with extra daylight in the evenings and a long summer ahead, there’s plenty to look forward to after the clocks go forward.

The clocks go back at 2 a.m. on Sunday 27th October 2013.

The moment when the clocks go back signals the move into autumn and winter, marking the end of British Summer Time (BTS) and the return to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
