I dug up one plant Pentlin Javelin an early and I only got 1 potato so I was really disappointed.

I dug up a Red Duke of York plant yesterday and got two reasonable potatoes and several marbles, so was also disappointed - but the colour is absolutely beautiful. They were also planted in early March (I put 5 tubers in early as an experiment, and they all look well).
