When do the clocks change in 2024 and why?
Briefly

This year, the clocks in the UK will revert back to standard time at 2:00 AM on Sunday, October 27, offering an extra hour of daylight.
Manually changing clocks is becoming less common due to technology; however, devices like alarm clocks and car radios still require manual adjustments.
The tradition of changing clocks is rooted in energy conservation, initiated in 1916 by the German government to maximize daylight and reduce electricity use.
The concept of British Summer Time (BST) has been in place since 1971, leading to predictable and established clock changes each year.
