Heh, exercise for the American viewers of Boing Boing: can you spot which one of the cops isn't actually a police officer?

Spooky - just this morning, for no reason I can identify, a scene from "The Great St Trinians Train Robbery" popped into my head. (Fourth one in the series, the one that dissapointingly only has five comic geniuses - Howerd, Bryan, Cole, Scott, and of course Mullard. No disrespect intended here for Varney and Baker, of course.)
Let me see if I can describe it... the forgettable plot has Frankie Howerd as #2 in a criminal gang. The mysterious chief only communicates via TV transmission of his voice and a still cartoon of a giant eye. Howerd and his men reports that their attempts to recover the takings from the last robbery have been thwarted by a girls school. "A girl's school!" shouts the voice incredulously. "What school?" "St Trinians" reports Howerd, ashamed.
And in a moment that has formed part of my mental baggage for many years, the eye (so far inanimate) bulges out in horror, and the voice goes silent.
"Is it broken?" ask the criminals, fiddling with the ariel and giving the TV idiosyncratic slaps.
Aw poot, I'm going to have to go buy it on DVD now.

Concentric Retrograde minutes means that the minutes are written on a dial that rotates (backwards) past a pointer.
Look at this close-up:

The minutes are the outside of the right hand dial.

Instantaneous jump hour means that unlike a normal watch where the hour hand takes an hour to move from on number to the next, the hour hand on this watch just jumps at the instant the hour changes. Well, it used a concentric disk instead of an hour hand, of course, but same idea.
