Edward Heath, Conservative premier, ordered the three day week in December 1973, this ended in March 1974 when Harold Wilson became premier.
Callaghan's premiership 1976 - 79, to be remembered for his involvement in the now embarrassing Delorian deal and his appaling failure to call a general election when the omens were good in October 1978.
