No fortunately. The death penalty was abolished for murder in Britain in 1965. The death penalty (by hanging) remained a valid form of punishment for certain offences (including High Treason, and setting fire to HM Naval Bases or Ships) until 1998 when it was completely abolished for all crimes. No executions occured in the UK between 1965 and 1998.
