The BritishRealTime Project • www.britishrealtime.com
The BritishRealTime clock has been designed and developed to replace our
sponsorship of the British Telecom speaking clock. Having been sponsors of the
speaking clock for over 22 years and having received 3.5 billion calls we felt that
it was time for a change. So we came up with the idea of creating a new online
clock that didn’t just feature one voice but could incorporate many thousands of
voices and accents reflecting our diverse society. The clock will continually show
different people speaking the hours, minutes and seconds of each ten second
time check. Creating the clock involves filming members of the public in our
specially designed booth.
