Example ...... visa issued with start date of 01.08.08 .... end date is 01.11.10. The person needs to enter the UK no later than 29.11.08.
But I would not recommend leaving it quite as late as that! But it does cut out the hassle of needing to arrive within the first 28 days, which is great.
It was very helpful to me
