Double white line question

Sorry if this has been asked before. I ran a search but didn't come up with the answer ...

On a single-carriageway where double-white lines are present, is it legal to overtake a vehicle as long as you do not cross the white lines?

I have had two sets of advice on this - a traffic officer on TV said he would consider it to be an offence but a bike mag (not one I consider reliable from a legal advice standpoint) said it was OK.

Anyone here have any experience of, or advice on, such matters? Thanks.
