I was talking to a dealer yesterday ( who shall remain nameless) who suggested very strongly that PW may be coming back to the fold. Apparently he is not entirely happy with the direction things have been going ( boats motorbikes etc) and is looking at buying his way back in......The deal could be finished by the end of this month..

If he is looking at buying back, would that mean that the company could again be re-sold to anyone?

...(cracks open piggy bank....)

...as they say in France.

I don't think PW would touch it - he knows where it's been!

I just heard the Big Ben clock face will be replaced with a new LCD digital display to make it easier to read

You just heard that? In 1980 the BBC reported that Big Ben, in order to keep up with the times, was going to be given a digital readout. It received a huge response from listeners protesting the change. The BBC Japanese service also announced that the clock hands would be sold to the first four listeners to contact them, and one Japanese seaman in the mid-Atlantic immediately radioed in a bid.

But then, I'm old enough to remember....

True not sure what the clock is called, but BIG BEN is actually the Big 13 tonne Bell inside, The bell was named after the first commissioner of works, Sir Benjamin Hall.
