    One of London’s most iconic landmarks will do something very rare this morning.

    The London Eye marks the end of British Summer Time by taking a backwards spin – something it’s only done once before.

    It also marks the clocks going back – or the end of British Summer Time to Greenwich Mean Time.

    The last time it ran anti-clockwise was in 2019, the first time it had done so since it was unveiled in 2000 to celebrate the start of the millennium.

    It will begin the direction change at 8.15am for around 30 minutes before it opens to the public.

    Robin Goodchild, senior general manager of the London Eye, said: “We are thrilled to share a unique moment with everyone as the London Eye goes backwards to mark the end of British Summer Time.

    “As the nights draw in, early evening rides offer guests breathtaking panoramic views of London’s skyline, showcasing the transition from autumnal sunsets to thousands of twinkling lights.”

    Earlier this week the British Sleep Society (BSS) called for the clocks to never go forward again.

    It wants the government to stick to one time all year round – and it should be the winter one.

    In 2018, it emerged Britain could scrap the annual changing of the clocks in plans that never came to fruition

    London Eye has just done something it’s only done once before
