Didn't Jim Hutton write that they didn't really know WHEN he actually died, but that they just sort of discovered in a way?
But anyway, I believe around seven would suffice for any candle lighting.
All I know is, a few minutes after my friend from England was born, a nurse came in and told his mum Freddie had died, but yeah, I thought it was 6.45pm too, I think that's what it says in The Brian May Story.
Will anyone from this forum be at Garden Lodge on November, 24th?
I´ll be visiting London in a few days and like to know if there will be a special "ceremony" in front of Fred´s former home.
Dead o'clock.
But seriously - wasn't this in that Jim Hutton book? He notes that he stopped the arm of a clock he'd given to Freddie when he died.... I don't recall if he mentioned the actual time when he did it though.

"Dave Clark had only got as far as the doorway when Freddie died. He came back in to stay with me, and Phoebe ran to find Joe. I stopped the tiny fly-wheel of the wind-up carriage clock by the bed. I'd given it to Freddie because he told me he'd always wanted one. It read twelve minutes to seven. I've never started it again." --Jim Hutton, Mercury and Me

...and remember you're living in a different time zone. That's 6:45 GMT. ;D
