Convert multiple time format object as datetime format

Question

I have a dataframe with a list of time value as object and needed to convert them to datetime, the issue is, they are not on the same format so when I try:

df['Total call time'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Total call time'], format='%H:%M:%S')

it gives me an error

ValueError: time data '3:22' does not match format '%H:%M:%S' (match)

or if use this code

df['Total call time'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Total call time'], format='%H:%M')

I get this error

ValueError: unconverted data remains: :58

These are the values on my data

Total call time
2:04:07
3:22:41
2:30:41
2:19:06
1:45:55
1:30:08
1:32:15
1:43:28
**45:48**
1:41:40
5:08:37
**3:22**
4:29:05
2:47:25
2:39:29
2:29:32
2:09:52
3:31:57
2:27:58
2:34:28
3:14:10
2:12:10
2:46:58

Answer 1

times = """\
2:04:07
3:22:41
2:30:41
2:19:06
1:45:55
1:30:08
1:32:15
1:43:28
45:48
1:41:40
5:08:37
3:22
4:29:05
2:47:25
2:39:29
2:29:32
2:09:52
3:31:57
2:27:58
2:34:28
3:14:10
2:12:10
2:46:58""".split()

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(times, columns=['elapsed'])
def pad(s):
    if len(s) == 4:
        return '00:0'+s
    elif len(s) == 5:
        return '00:'+s
    return s
print(pd.to_timedelta(df['elapsed'].apply(pad)))

Output:
