    You could add in Conditional Formating in E this criteria:

    Formula: copy to clipboard

    It won't make cell blink but you can paint it in red or something.
    However, it won't be fully automatic since you need to to *something* in the workbook and it will be automatically refreshed.

    For what you looking for you would need some VBA.

    You mean just F9?

    Yes, with that. Or anything else: Typing in a sheet (not necessary connected to that cells) will refresh it.

    See example...

    Type in C1 some time from now minus 1 hour plus one minute.
    I.e. now is 1.12.2014 15:44:22
    Type inthere 1.12.2014 14:45:03

    And wait... When 15:45:03 has passed nothing will happend.
    But then just type somewhere something or press F9 and it will turn to red.
