UK GDP for July to September of 2011 has been revised from a 0.5% increase to 0.6% the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has revealed today.
However, second quarter growth estimates for 2011 were revised down from 0.1% to 0%.
The Guardian Datablog has an ongoing project visualising UK GDP figures.
The data we have gathered shows percentage change in GDP going back to 1948, we have a spreadsheet to download that shows GDP in cash, ie what it was that year not adjusted for inflation, total inflation-adjusted figures and per capita inflation adjusted figures.
As several of our posters below have pointed out, there's more to life than GDP – but here are the latest GDP figures from the ONS for you to explore.
