Suzanne M is referring to the married couple's tax allowance, not state pension. Your husband will get both his pension entitlement, and a dependancy allowance for you, he will be taxable on both. When you are 60, you will get either your full pension, or the reduced married women's rate, depending on what contributions you have made, on which you will be taxable, and your husband will lose his dependancy allowance for you.
I am not sure when the new age limits come in.

Hi,the pension will be topped up by the DHSS.Depending on how old you are say your 50 then yes you will have to wait untill your 65.

According the the booklet "Approaching Retirement" (Inland Revenue & Customs booklet IR 121), the rules are as follows:-
If you are married and either you or your husband or wife was born before 6 April 1935, you can claim Married Couples' Allowance.
Anyone born after that date can no longer claim this allowance.
Have a look at the website below.

A woman gets her pension at 60..the amount depends on what stamps she has paid,(39 yrs for a full pension).If she has'nt paid enough stamps she can claim a smaller pension off her husband's stamps.
