Big Ben, the great bell in Elizabeth Clock Tower rings every hour on the hour. First is the big ben chime, then is the o'clock dongs.
i.e. if it was 3 o'clock it would go ding dong ding dong, ding dong ding dong, then a few seconds wait, and a *dong. dong. dong to show that the time was 3. Where I put the *is when it is the time - so the first of the big dongs is when it is exactly o'clock (to within 1 second).
