I saw this. Any reason why? A trial?

Yes indeed - getting in practice for next June!
It's a shame the Press Notice I received about it stated (Sunday) "10 am to 8 am" ;D ;D

This weekend's extended hours is to part compensate for the City branch of the Northern Line being closed for weekend engineering work (line upgrade, new signalling system et al).
In June, currently planned from Sunday 2 June (but watch this space if the dates change - it's happened before!) the W&C will have extended operating hours and will operate daily.
The same date coincides with a new Central Line timetable, which will have "Improved evening and weekend services".
Edit: the "extended hours" of this weekend is also at the moment planned for the Easter 4-day weekend.

We never dared such things in NSE days (but ought to have...)
