Big Ben's famous clock appeared to be frozen in time yesterday after its hands became stuck.
The London landmark bewildered passers-by as it continued to read 6.25 for a number of hours on Monday (September 5) due to a currently undisclosed issue.
Commenting on the error last night, a House of Commons spokesman said: "We are aware that the clock dials are displaying the incorrect time. This is a temporary inaccuracy."
