I need input! I'm drafting a quiz for next year (I know!) and would like to do a round using times, ideally from book titles.
So far the only one I can think of is the 4.50 from Paddington

Please spam me with any you can think of. Hours and minutes as words are also fine in the title at this stage.

<Wondering why I have chosen to do this>

Me neither!

Just 1984 but I don't think that counts,

Could you adjust it so it can be a time or the actual word time in the title? So A brief history of Time Stephen Hawkings, Interesting Times Terry Pratchett?

Yes I was thinking along these lines:

Would '1984' count?
