The clock in your head that tells you when reality exists only does so for you - not anybody else. And it runs fast or slow depending on your mood. So-what time is it? And why is this writing in your past?
In the third of a series of six programmes James Burke spends 30 of his minutes (not necessarily yours) looking at why the world around you can't exist 'now' for everybody.
This programme will be short, or long, depending on you. Its real length? Who knows?

Creaming the Fat
Reporter David Henshaw
Slimming is Britain's number one participation sport-and by far the most futile: almost all the weight we lose we put back on again.
Brass Tacks reports on the £300-million industry that thrives on the fear of fat. In Reading a cross-section of slimming addicts are filmed undergoing everything from jaw wiring to stomach stapling. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, the very latest techniques include electric shock therapy for cake addicts, and balloons that inflate in stomach. Director JULIET MAY

The fourth of six films on the noble families of Europe. Prince Franz Josef II of Liechtenstein
The tiny country of Liechtenstein is squeezed between Austria and Switzerland and has been ruled by Prince Franz Josef II since 1938. In that year he met Hitler and prevented the Nazis taking over his country.
The Prince and his wife, Princess Gina, have the most valuable collection of paintings still in private hands in the world. But they dislike talking about money -' you can't eat a painting and you can't make clothes out of a castle, I mean what is rich? '
ROBERT LACEY finds how the family lost 22 castles and 100,000 ancestral acres to the Russians in 1945 but kept Liechtenstein, and transformed it into Europe's richest community.
The noble house of Liechtenstein can claim to be the world's most successful aristocrats, for they have risen from landowners to rulers of a fully fledged, if pocket-sized, sovereign state.
