About to switch to NOW (Sky) Full Fibre due to the great deal being offered. The price will jump dramatically after the 18 months and was wondering if it is possible and easy to switch back to copper Fibre then if needed.

No , once FTTP is provided that is the default network, so any future migration between providers will keep the FTTP ,( you won’t return to FTTC ) , but there is no reason why there should be a price difference between FTTC and FTTP , if you get ( for example) a 40Mb package from an ISP , the price is the same on FTTC or FTTP ,most simply show the price , not the medium it’s delivered over , so why it it an issue ? ,
The only possible problem is if you want to use a provider that doesn’t offer FTTP but does offer FTTC , but that’s not likely ever to be the case1
