Introduction: A new series of 24
has been commissioned to be set in London and that will only consist of 12
episodes but I’m not sure how well Jack Bauer would cope in England…
Jack Bauer: Ok – so I’ve moved to
London and my day has dramatically shortened but I’m sure everything will be
just fi-
Government minister: Oh my God,
Jack! Thank goodness I found you! There’s a situation in parliament - some mad
blond bloke’s threatening to detonate a bomb unless his demands are met by 3.15
this afternoon!
Jack Bauer: Right – let’s go!
(dramatic music interlude)
Jack Bauer: Ok. Ok - so that didn’t

terrorist – the bomb’s not set to go off until 3.15pm.
Glamorous assistant: But, Jack,
it’s 3:13 now!
Jack Bauer: No it’s not – according
to my watch it’s only 10.13am.
Government minister: Uh, Jack –
you’re still on US time. London is 5 hours ahead.
Jack Bauer: Oh sh-
(explosion)
