Hello Dave,
thank you for reporting back.
I don't see an error in your first post. I also don't understand why you
think this is connected to LC_TIME. Are you sure? I would expect a
Python exception instead of a core dump if BIT is not able to handle
something with the locale setting.
I saw you use "en_GB" instead of "en_US" locale. I tested this on my
system using dpkc-reconfigure to set this locale. I wasn't able to
reproduce your issue.

That Segmentation fault is interesting. Does this happen when you
regulary close BIT? Or does BIT not open?
There is a long standing issue, to our knowledge and research, caused by
Qt in some special and not always reproducible circumstances causing a
seg fault. In 1.5.3 a contributor improved the related code and it
seemed to be fixed.
<https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues/1095>
In this issue you will also find a helper script to start and close BIT
several times automatically to trigger the seg fault. It might be that
your environment and local is irrelevant and it is just this known Qt
seg fault that happens from time to time without reproducability.

Christian
