GMT is the Greenwich meridian time otherwise known as Universal time (UTC), this is the time that every other time zone is coordinated by. GMT is also the time used by the UK in the winter.

BST is British Summer time, BST is 1 hour ahead of GMT, therefore it sometimes written as GMT+1. This is the time that the UK uses during the summer, after the clocks are moved forward an hour.
British Summer Time is one hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time. British Summer Time is in effect from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October.
