Even knowing all this (having just gone through it) I have always 
believed a double lesson to mean a two hour ratehr than one hour 
lesson the main reason being that even if you have DOuble science you 
don't say "I'm going to Double science" because ach sicence is 
studied serately so you have 1 Biology, one Chemsitry and one Phsics 
lesson a week ( we also had an extra fourth lesson the rotated 
between the three)
The single people have one lesson in each science and the treble 
people had two lessons in each area.

HOLLYDAZE!!!
