When we return from holidaying on the continent, a couple of years from now, will we be able to bring greatly reduced "Duty Free" goods back to the UK..

That depends on what you're buying tombar - wine for instance is a lot cheaper abroad. Not sure you can buy a Pinot for eg. under £5 in UK and I picked some up at £1.49 (it was ok and some at £1.99 which was great) in the Calais Winewarehouse. Saved a fortune but am now down to 50 bottles left in the garage. We haven't bought any wine in UK in months.

Maybe Brexit will have hidden benefits, less alcohol and tobacco related illnesses!

Thanks to everybody for posting on this tread. I am still unsure what the final outcome of the different duty charges will be and how they will be administered.

Possibly we will have to wait and see.
