Just dial 123 and you can hear one of the BT Red Nose Climb celebrities that has taken over the Speaking Clock to help fundraise for Comic Relief from now until March 23, 2009. You'll be given an accurate time check by one of the celebrities that are climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, including: Girls Aloud's Cheryl Cole and Kimberley Walsh, fellow popstar, Gary Barlow, Fearne Cotton and Chris Moyles.
Each celebrity will replace the pips with their own special Comic Relief sound, ranging from kisses, raspberries and piano chords in a bid to Do Something Funny for Money. And as if that wasnt enough, therell be a special guest voice featuring in the run up to Red Nose Day on Friday 13 March but youll have to dial 123 to find out who it is.
BT is donating 10 pence per call* from a BT fixed line in the UK that the Speaking Clock receives during this fundraising period - so we could raise a mountain of cash if you and all your friends call in. See www.bt.com/comicrelief
The cutest one is Cheryl. Her voice goes really deep when she said "and _____ seconds..."

We don't have a speaking clock in the US anymore. I wish we did. We called ours Time and Temp,because the lady would say "The current time is 2:30 and 23 seconds,the temperature is 98 degrees and rising."
