Presumably the first of September 1939, as there would have been no point in continuing to produce the metalwork after the Television Service closed down for the duration ...
I've just realised that war was declared on Sunday the 3rd of September 1939 not the 1st. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-enter...15621.html
So Ekco employees as it must have been with HMV and others would have reported for work and production would no doubt have continued, there also could have been OT on Saturday and Sunday.
