Here's a Time Zone converter. UK is 5 hours ahead of EST. Our clocks have just gone back an hour from BST (British Summer Time).
We in the UK go by GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and it is the same time as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the international time used for aviation, shipping etc.
UTC is the basis for civil standard time in many countries, including the United States and its territories. Standard time within US time zones is an integral number of hours offset from UTC.
You might know it as Zulu Time.
So, Australia is 10-12 hours (big country) ahead of GMT/UTC and y'all are 5-7 hours behind (another big country).

Hope you got all that
