  30 In the 1946 movie <em>A Matter of Life and Death</em>
  31 (U.S. title <em>Stairway to Heaven</em>)
  32 there is a reference to British Double Summer Time.
  33 The time does not play a large part in the plot;
  34 it's just a passing reference to the time when one of the
  35 characters was supposed to have died (but didn't).

  41 The 1953 railway comedy movie <em>The Titfield Thunderbolt</em> includes a
  42 play on words on British Double Summer Time. Valentine's wife wants
  43 him to leave the pub and asks him, "Do you know what time it is?"
  44 And he, happy where he is, replies: "Yes, my love. Summer double time."

  51 The premise of the 1999 caper movie <em>Entrapment</em> involves computers
  52 in an international banking network being shut down briefly at
  53 midnight in each time zone to avoid any problems at the transition
  54 from the year 1999 to 2000 in that zone. (Hmmmm.) If this shutdown
  55 is extended by 10 seconds, it will create a one-time opportunity for
  56 a gigantic computerized theft. To achieve this, at one location the
  57 crooks interfere with the microwave system supplying time signals to
  58 the computer, advancing the time by 0.1 second each minute over the
  59 last hour of 1999. (So this movie teaches us that 0.1 &times; 60 = 10.)

  66 One mustn't forget the
  67 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4EUTMPuvHo">trailer</a>
  68 (2014; 2:23) for the movie <em>Daylight Saving</em>.

  71 <h2>TV episodes</h2>
  72 <ul>
  73 <li>
  74 An episode of <em>The Adventures of Superman</em> entitled "The Mysterious
  75 Cube," first aired 1958-02-24, had Superman convincing the controllers
  76 of the Arlington Time Signal to broadcast ahead of actual time;
  77 doing so got a crook trying to be declared dead to
  78 emerge a bit too early from the titular enclosure.
  79 </li>
  80 <li>
  81 The 1960s ITC television series <em>The Prisoner</em> included an episode
  82 entitled "The Chimes of Big Ben" in which our protagonist tumbled to
  83 the fraudulent nature of a Poland-to-England escape upon hearing "Big
  84 Ben" chiming on Polish local time.
  85 </li>
  86 <li>
  87 The series <em>Seinfeld</em> included an episode entitled "The Susie," first
  88 broadcast 1997-02-13, in which Kramer decides that daylight saving time
  89 isn't coming fast enough, so he sets his watch ahead an hour.
  90 </li>
  91 <li>
  92 The "20 Hours in America" episode of <em>The West Wing</em>,
  93 first aired 2002-09-25, contained a <a
  94 href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-J1NHzQ1sgc">scene</a> that
  95 saw White House staffers stranded in Indiana; they thought they had time to
  96 catch Air Force One but were done in by intra-Indiana local time changes.
  97 </li>
  98 <li>
  99 "In what time zone would you find New York City?" was a $200 question on
 100 the 1999-11-13 United States airing of <em>Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?</em>,
 101 and "In 1883, what industry led the movement to divide the U.S. into four time
 102 zones?" was a $32,000 question on the 2001-05-23 United States airing of
 103 the same show. At this rate, the million-dollar time-zone
 104 question should have been asked 2002-06-04.
 105 </li>
 106 <li>
 107 A private jet's mid-flight change of time zones distorts Alison Dubois'
 108 premonition in the "We Had a Dream" episode of <em>Medium</em>
 109 (originally aired 2007-02-28).
 110 </li>
 111 <li>
 112 In the <em>30 Rock</em> episode "Anna Howard Shaw Day"
 113 (first broadcast 2010-02-11),
 114 Jack Donaghy's date realizes that a Geneva-to-New-York business phone call
 115 received in the evening must be fake given the difference in local times.
 116 </li>
 117 <li>
 118 In the "Run by the Monkeys" episode of <em>Da Vinci's Inquest</em>
 119 (first broadcast 2002-11-17),
 120 a witness in a five-year-old fire case realizes they may not have set
 121 their clock back when daylight saving ended on the day of the fire,
 122 introducing the possibility of an hour when arson might have occurred.
 123 </li>
 124 <li>
 125 In "The Todd Couple" episode of <em>Outsourced</em> (first aired 2011-02-10),
 126 Manmeet sets up Valentine's Day teledates for 6:00 and 9:00pm;
 127 since one is with a New Yorker and the other with a San Franciscan,
 128 hilarity ensues.
 129 (Never mind that this should be 7:30am in Mumbai, yet for some reason the show
 130 proceeds as though it's also mid-evening there.)
 131 </li>
 132 <li>
 133 In the "14 Days to Go"/"T Minus..." episode of
 134 <em>You, Me and the Apocalypse</em>
 135 (first aired 2015-11-11 in the UK, 2016-03-10 in the US),
 136 the success of a mission to deal with a comet
 137 hinges on whether or not Russia observes daylight saving time.
 138 (In the US, the episode first aired in the week before the switch to DST.)
 139 </li>
 140 <li>
 141 "The Lost Hour", <em>Eerie, Indiana</em>, episode 10, NBC, 1991-12-01.
 142 Despite Indiana's then-lack of DST, Marshall changes his clock with
 143 unusual consequences.
 144 </li>
 145 <li>
 146 "Time Tunnel", <em>The Adventures of Pete &amp; Pete</em>, season 2, episode 5,

 148 The two Petes travel back in time an hour on the day that DST ends.
 149 </li>
 150 <li>
 151 "King-Size Homer", <em>The Simpsons</em>, episode 135, Fox, 1995-11-05.
 152 Homer, working from home, remarks "8:58, first
 153 time I've ever been early for work. Except for all those daylight
 154 savings days. Lousy farmers."
 155 </li>
 156 <li>
 157 "Tracks", <em>The Good Wife</em>, season 7, episode 12,
 158 CBS, 2016-01-17.
 159 The applicability of a contract hinges on the

 166 Jules Verne, <em>Around the World in Eighty Days</em>
 167 (<em>Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours</em>), 1873.
 168 Wall-clock time plays a central role in the plot.
 169 European readers of the 1870s clearly held the U.S. press in
 170 deep contempt; the protagonists cross the U.S. without once
 171 reading a paper.
 172 Available versions include
 173 <a href="http://www.literature.org/Works/Jules-Verne/eighty">an English
 174 translation</a>, and
 175 <a href="http://fourmilab.ch/etexts/www/tdm80j">the original French</a>
