Big Ben’s iconic bongs return after restoration work
After five years of restoration work, the bells of the Elizabeth Tower - including Big Ben - are returning to regular service.
Big Ben will be struck 11 times at 11:00 on Remembrance Sunday to mark the beginning of the two-minute silence.
Clockmakers Ian Westworth and Alex Jeffrey spoke to the BBC about bringing the iconic bells back into service.
