That's quite interesting because now I think about it whenever I've stayed in a hotel in the UK I seem to remember them being 24h format. Esp Hilton who have integrated the clock into the entertainment system. Clocks bought from shops have a little light or dot for pm or have an LED for am/pm. I guess some might allow you to switch to 24h format but I haven't seen any myself. I'll have to check the Argos catalogue!

Would you say the 24 hour clock is used in all other aspects of public life in the UK? Where would I find it used and not used?
