Yes Naomi. Problem is, here out West it is forecast to be cloudy and raining, so no chance of a good view. Times of the event below. There is a 20minute difference between Northern and Southern Britain.

South of England times:
20:50pm the full moon begins to rise from the South East appearing red in colour
21:21pm is the time of maximum eclipse when the moon will appear at it’s deepest red
22:13pm total eclipse ends moon starts to lose it’s red colour.

North of England times:
21:10pm the full moon begins to rise from the South East appearing red in colour
21:41pm is the time of maximum eclipse when the moon will appear at it’s deepest red. 22:33pm total eclipse ends moon starts to lose it’s red colour

We've been promised cloud and rain this evening. We'll not see it.

We have waited for rain for the garden for ages and when does it occur ? When something worth observing in the heavens is to occur also.

Cloud always stops these sort if things here, anyway; so no surprise there then.

Besides we'll only get the Blood Moon during moonrise in the UK.
