Default Where get wall-mounted timer switch for a room light?

Where can I get a wall-mounted timer switch for a room light?

I want something which can be set set to switch the light on for a
period of hours (like the evening).

I haven't seen anything which can be wall-mounted in a normal sized
light switch.

"Discount Electrical" are my new favourite web mail-order supplier.

Wider range of "semi-industrial" kit than my local TLC and good
prices. They also have a vast range of lighting control gear, timer
switches et al.

Nice one!

It's a 7 day timer. Do you know if there is one for 24 hours only?

What I would really like is an easy switch to put on the bathroom
light that has a timeswitch in it, but then a less easy override, so
that the ******* in my family don't leave the bathroom light on ad
infinitum, but it can be put on for the soak in the bath.
