Interestingly, the modern MK cooker control unit in my kitchen (pic 1 - installed new last year) has those rotary shutters.

The previous larger CCU (pic 2 - installed new in 1980) had earth pin operated shutters, while all the other MK wall sockets in the house had the rotary ones.

I very much prefer the new understated white switches to the red ones of the previous CCU - although they're still the same size.
