Exact time the clocks go back - and the odd link to Coldplay's Chris Martin

At the end of October, early risers can look forward to an extra hour curled up in bed, with clocks reverting back from British Summer Time (BST) to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Each year, on the last Sunday in October, the clocks will go back one hour at 2 am, allowing for more sunlight in the mornings as we enter the darker months ahead.

This year, those in the UK will see their clocks go back by one hour on Sunday, October 30th. If you set your alarm on your smartphone or another digital device then this should automatically update for you without any trouble. However, if you still go by an analog alarm clock, then it's probably best to get it wound up and ready before you hit the hay.
