It may be late in the evening, but Im sure someone has a thread for the clocks changing, see if any cock up happen....

Its strange that may TV clocks still take some time to get reconfigured

The news channels usually take a couple of minutes to get the clock back up correctly, and I remember in years past one of them going without a clock for the extra hour. The days of Ceefax showing the wrong time until mid-morning are long gone. It'll be an extra hour of teleshopping for most channels
BBC News is giving Click an extra airing.

Meanwhile on radio...

Radio 4 Extra is putting this on at 1:00 GMT:

As the UK prepares to put the clocks back, Sean Street travels back through old recordings to explore the ways we have tried to control time, the most confusing of dimensions.

Is there a gap as such when the station runs on GMT time all year round?

As above - BBC World Service runs to GMT all year around.
