When do the clocks go back in 2022? Date and time clocks change in the UK as British Summer Time ends – UKNIP

At 2am on Sunday 29 October British summer time (BST) comes to an end, the country puts the clocks back an hour to 1am, and we go back to observing Greenwich mean time.

The clocks going back is usually a bonanza for the entertainment and hospitality industry.

However, under current coronavirus restrictions, everything fun has to shut at 10pm on Saturday night.
