It's your code again, but this time it's a more popular mistake. :-)
You forgot to put a '#' in front of your binary numbers, therefore you
are using zeropage addressing instead of imediate addressing. Also
your binary numbers are one bit too short, so that you are using $10
instead of $20.

Your clock program displays colours on my PAL VCS and strangely enough
the B/W switch is also detected. :-)
