Bedsocks ! I dunno how Gok Wan would feel about it, but I wear lots of layers of clothes. As the weather gets colder, I add more layers. Lots more. Yes I look about 3 stone heavier than I am. But I have a teeny heating bill.
Lots and lots of blankets and duvets on the bed. Put a pillow either side of you, it makes a huge difference.
Watching TV, I huddle under a sleeping bag and 2 cats.
Another tip is - visit your friends and neighbours, or volunteer, or join a society that does talks or film shows, or learn dancing etc. The heating is not on in my home when I am not there.
Broomsticks. Sweep non carpeted floors instead of hoovering - quick and quiet and very green.
