We have one chilli plant which was bought from Homebase this year. I
have no idea what variety, but it has produced lots of very hot and
very tasty chillis. Given the mild weather it is still going strong
outside in a pot but eventually the frost will get it.

As the chillis are so good I don't want to lose the plant if I can help
it. Is there any way I can keep this plant over the winter and grow it
on next year?

You can also save seed from some of the ripe fruit, and grow from
that next year! I would do that anyway, in case it fails to
overwinter.
