The BBC first broadcast the chimes on 31 December 1923 - there is a microphone in the turret connected to Broadcasting
The clock is famous for its reliability. This is due to the skill of its designer, the lawyer and amateur horologist Edmund Beckett Denison, later Lord Grimthorpe. As the clock mechanism, created to Denison's specification by clockmaker Edward John Dent, was completed before the tower itself was finished, Denison had time to experiment. Instead of using the deadbeat escapement and remontoire as originally designed, Denison invented the double three-legged gravity escapement. This escapement provides the best separation between pendulum and clock mechanism. Together with an enclosed, wind-proof box sunk beneath the clockroom, the Great Clock's pendulum is well isolated from external factors like snow, ice and pigeons on the clock hands, and keeps remarkably accurate time.
The idiom of putting a penny on, with the meaning of slowing down, sprang from the method of fine-tuning the clock's pendulum by adding or subtracting penny coins. Even to this day, old pennies, phased out of British currency by the 1971 decimalisation, are used.
Despite heavy bombing the clock ran accurately throughout the Blitz. It slowed down on New Year's Eve 1962 due to heavy snow, causing it to chime in the new year 10 minutes late.

BBC被Broadcasting連接了的炮塔有1923年12月31日在最初時,廣播了音樂的鈴聲的--麥克風。
表可靠性有名。 這是因為設計家和律師和測表學者edomondo·Beckett·denisun,業餘愛好者之後的主人的格林索普的技能。 根據表舖愛德華約翰Dent被denisun的方法製作了的表機械裝置在塔自己結束之前落成了的時候,denisun,有實驗的時間。 代替作為根本被設計與速示文字寄送裝置使用remontoire的事,denisun發明了雙重三腳的重力文字寄送裝置。 這個文字寄送裝置擺子和表機械裝置之間供給最好的分離。 極好的Clock的擺子,被被沉下了到clockroom下的附在信內要,與耐風的箱子一起,用表的針從雪,冰,和象鴿子一樣的外部的要素很好地被隔離,保持顯著地正確的時間。
以速度減低的意義擱置便士的複合詞從根據是不是加上,或拉數達的事關於表的擺子微調整的方法產生了便士硬幣。 連這天,由英國的通貨用1971年的十進制使相位能協調了的舊的便士被使用。
儘管是激烈的轟炸,表正確動了Blitz中。 那個引起由於大雪的除夕1962速度減低了,那個一新年晚10分響。
應該這樣吧
