As I mentioned some of the houses on the council estate in my childhood village used D&S plugs and sockets, these houses were rewired in the mid 1970s so the plugs were in use right up to that time!

As an aside I have only ever seen the White/Ivory coloured D&S plugs for sale in Woolworths, but can only ever recall seeing black ones actually in use.
