How do overnight services run on nights like tonight when the clocks go back? For example, does the Caledonian Sleeper have an extra hours layover somewhere?

Sleepers don't run on Saturday nights any more. Unsure what happens with things like airport trains....they probably fester somewhere for an hour!

Everything is just re-timed. Instruction put out to change clocks. If the clocks go back, normally you stop on an extra hour.
What if you are rostered 12 hours :?:
I asked this before and apparently the common sense approach is everybody works as normal and the hour gained/lost is balanced out with the change back and everybody gets paid as normal etc
