There are no exact figures. Even the census figures are not that reliable. And since the census is only ever taken every ten years (1901, 1911, 1921, 1931, 1951, 1961, 1971, 1981, 1991, 2001, etc. - none was taken in 1941 because of world war 2) there is no way anyone can reliable answer your question.
1921 was 44,072,000 ish
1931 was 46,074,000 ish
1951 was 50,290,000 ish
Plenty of people were missed off the census too for one reason or another, so how you ever hope to get an "EXACT NUMBER" for a non-census year is unclear. It would have to be a "best guess". You cannot arbitrarily say that at 6am GMT on the 1st July 1925 there were 45,232,337 people living in the UK because you could never hope to prove it!

Nobody knows the exact number. You can only get estimates.
1925 was about 36 million and 1950 was about 40.5 million
