Ambiguous whether continental time refers to the 24 hour clock or CET. In practice the term isn't much used (because it is vague?) but invariably refers to CET. It's a very long time since the 24 hour clock was perceived as a strange continental European habit! 84.92.241.186 (talk) 14:16, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
- I've lived in the UK for 20 years, and I have on occasion heard CET being called "continental time", but I have never heard that expression being used for 24-hour notations, especially as 24-hour notations have been the UK norm for a long time in a growing number of areas, such as timetables (since 1964), and an increasing number of radio and TV schedules. It is also the norm for in-picture time display on most UK TV channels. Thomas Blomberg (talk) 10:45, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
