It's seen a bit of wear, this Bible, hasn't it? Yes, some people say that that's his blood on that page there. Ooh, ooh, my goodness. But we can't be sure? No. It's a great story, though. Yes, it is. And the section with the clock face is from yet another period, isn't it? Yes. The clock itself is from 1734. So the time of George II. Absolutely. But George IV embellished it with all these scrolls here. Oh, I see, and the dragons. 'Cos he loved the exotic, didn't he? Yes, absolutely.

It plays ten pieces by Handel, five of which he arranged specially for the clock. Can we hear it? Yes, certainly.
