Just about still time, but the later maturing types such as Arran Victory wont bulk up as well and the longer the growing season the higher the risk of late blight.
My main crop are just about breaking through, though earthed them up and the earlies this evening as a frost may be on the cards.

We put some of our earlies (maris bard)and all our maincrop (desiree) in on Sunday 23 April. We planted early (rocket) at the end of February and they are well on the way. We will still fill in the ends of rows of our maincrop (where the tractor turns) with some more next week.
Still plenty of time to plant.
