With Halloween upon us and Bonfire Night round the corner, we’re firmly into autumn now. This time of year also means that the clocks go back an hour.
We will all gain an extra hour overnight as we return to Greenwich Meantime from British Summer Time. On Sunday morning, October 30, the clocks will go back an hour at 1am.
You’ll notice that the evenings will be a bit darker but for a short while the mornings will be lighter. However, it does mean that you have to make sure all the clocks in your home are at the right time.

Electronic devices such as cookers and ovens will all need to be altered manually, as well as any wall clocks and analogue watches. Fortunately you won’t have to worry about changing the time on your phone.
This applies to both Apple and Android devices. But it’s important to check your phone settings to make sure that the time will change, to be on the safe side.
You can do this by ensuring that your date and time options are selected to “set automatically”, and make sure all your software is up to date too. Network operators should then change the time accordingly so you shouldn’t have to do anything.
