EU member states have been asked to end the biannual ritual from October 2019, either staying on summer time or making one last change then staying on winter hours.

It’s still unclear whether the UK would have to follow this directive after March 29. However, this has sparked concerns that Northern Ireland may find itself in a different time zone from the Republic for part of the year.

UK Government spokesman said: “Ministers are actively working to convince other member states to block this proposal.”

Business minister Lord Henley has repeatedly voiced the UK’s opposition to the proposed change.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
