In winter Missouri uses Central Standard Time (CST) and London uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and in summer both locations apply a correction of plus 1 hour for Daylight Saving Time (known as British Summer Time in the UK) so London is 6 hours ahead of Missouri meaning that at 2 am in Missouri, it is 8 am in London.

However it should be noted that the start and end dates of DST and BST do not match. As such there are points in the year where London will only be 5 hours ahead of Missouri.

For example in 2009, DST commenced at 2 am on the 8th of March however BST did not commence until the 29th of March. Further to this BST reverted to GMT on the 25th of October whereas DST did not revert to CMT until the 1st of November, meaning there were approx. 26 days where London was only 5 hours ahead of Missouri.
