    Interesting tidbit with the Olympics 2012 Opening Ceremony - it was due to start at 8pm. Hence the above times. But last minute they pushed it back an hour to a 9pm start (due to it being darker at 9 than 8), so Bond and Her Majesty actually jumped at 9:35pm that evening.

    Yes, I find a screenmusings.org frame (GE 0584) showing the same screen at 16:10:52.

    I have edited my latest posting to include your finding under 16:10to avoid having to copy the entire list again. It's getting too expansive for my taste anyway. Endless scrolling....

    This thread is strictly for the time of the day, right ?

    Such that a countdown, such as in GF (in Ft. Knox), OP (at the circus), AVTAK (in the large cave full of silicon and explosives), NTTD (on the island soon to be vaporized) would not count ?

    Apologies, as that was NOT intended to be a pun ("would not count" as a "countdown").
