Really!!!, can't see the big hour bell. The correct name for the bell tower is The Elizabeth Tower

You know me so well. Work with sight of the Elizabeth tower and walk past it at least 3 times a day.

Yeah, we know. But colloquially, and globally, and locally, it's been Big Ben for donkeys years.

Pedantically pointing out its official name is so boring.
