The famous automaton clock in Underbank, Stockport, my home town, which I loved watching and listening to when I was a kid. It was not working for many years, but has recently been restored. The question is, why is it showing 8.51, but striking 5?

I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.
