Remember the clocks go back 1 hour today

EACH and every year our clocks go forward by an hour in March and fall back an hour in October as British Summer Time (BST) starts and finishes.
On Sunday, March 26 at 1am in the morning, clocks went forward one hour signalling the start of British Summer Time (BST).
This meant a whole hour less in bed but gave those living in Britain more daylight later into the evening. BST will remain in place until October 29 (TODAY) – when clocks go back by one hour at 2am and GMT resumes.
So if you’re reading this today you just gained an hour of sleep!
Germany became the first country to adopt the clock-changing plan on April 30, 1916, in order to save on coal usage, and on May 21, Britain followed, as World War One was underway.
The Summer Time Act of 1916 was passed by Parliament and the first day of British summer was reported as May 21, 1916.
Luckily, when the clocks go back one hour at 2am on Sunday, October 29, most devices connected to the internet like tablets, iPhones and other smart phones will update automatically.
However it’s still best to check so you don’t get caught out and turn up an hour early for things on Sunday morning!
The clocks in your kitchen and in your car are unlikely to update, likewise your watch and any other clocks around the house will need to be manually changed.
