London's Big Ben turns 150
Tuesday, June 02, 2009
From here in Norwegian, but the video has an interview in English.
-Big Ben is not the 100-metre high tower but rather the name of the bell inside the top of the tower
-Was probably named after Sir Benjamin Hall
-It's one of the only clocks/bells in the world with its own website
