Steve, it was due to a change in operations. Rather than defence over England the RAF went on the offensive with day fighter sweeps and the green/grey scheme replaced the green/dark earth paint to better camouflage the aircraft over the sea. Night bombers generally retained the Dark earth brown/green schemes on upper surfaces though.
