      The next time we’ll be able to see a total solar eclipse from the UK will be in 2090, which is quite a long time away! We’ll be able to see quite a few partial solar eclipses before then (when the Sun isn’t completely covered). This Wikipedia page lists all of the predicted eclipses (total and partial) for the UK in the next few years. It depends slightly on where you are in the country too, so make sure you look out for that.
