Removing quotes from a string

Question

So, I thought it would be just a problem, but I am getting the wrong results. I am basically trying to remove quotes around a string. For example, I have the line “01:00” and I want 01:00, the code below shows how I thought I could do this:

$expected_start_time = $conditions =~ m/(\"[^\"])/;

Each time this is executed, it returns 1, so I assume that it simply returns true, and does not extract a string from quotes. This happens regardless of what is in the quotes “02:00”, “02:20”, “08:00”, etc.
