Was there a year in post-war history when Britain either did not adopt British Summer Time or kept it all year round?

During World War Two Britain kept the clocks one hour ahead of GMT in the winter and two hours ahead (“Double Summer Time”) in the summer. From 1968 to 1971 clocks were kept on British Summer Time all the year round as an experiment, but we reverted to GMT in the winter of 1971. Oct 27 03, 3:11 AM

Agreeing entirely with Tabby Tom - just to add Daylight Saving wasn't introduced until 1907 so before that Britain didn't adopt any changes to the time. Oct 27 03, 12:24 PM

That fits with the discussion my Mum and Auntie had the other night so yay, TT. But actually, Fosse4, Daylight Savng Time was first introduced on May 1st 1916 in Germany and in Britain 20 days later. Oct 27 03, 9:18 PM
