Journal of Marketing, Vol. 30, No. 4 (Oct., 1966), pp. 10-14

has this: "The British government's announcement on May 24, 1965 of a 
decision to switch to the metric system of weights and measures during the 
next ten years has far-reaching impact."

This would include the Celsius scale, I would presume.
