In England the Sunday Trading Law (Sunday Trading Act 1994) mandate that larger shops - those over 280 m2 floor space cannot open on Easter Sunday, and have not been allowed to since the law came into effect in 1995.
Traditionally shops would also observe Good Friday as a 'Bank Holiday' and close, but this has always been voluntary and seems to have gone by the board in recent years.
(Christmas day opening is prevented by a different law : Christmas Day (Trading) Act 2004)
