Don't know if this is also for UK versions but maybe you automatic time correction is on or try another radio channel without rds or switch of rds.

Model number of radio would help -

Some are updated by Radio transmission, some are updated by GPS

Does it keep incrementing by +1 hour ?  ie: its now a good few hours out,  or simply not changing from GMT to BST  ?

Sounds like you may have a rougue rds transmitter nearby that has not been reset for BST ?  

Try with RDS / TP / TA / REG all set to OFF  and see what happens.

Looking at the manual for my CCRT700 it says that by pressing AS (Auto Store)  till it beeps, aswell as storing the best 10 stations, will aslo automatically select RDS.
Did you have an RDS station selected before hand?

Not sure Andy, as it's only been doing i since last Sunday, I might be something I did when cleaning it.
