Is big ben a frame or a shell?
Oh, dude, Big Ben is actually the nickname for the Great Bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London. So, it's neither a frame nor a shell, it's just a really big bell inside a clock tower. But hey, I guess you could say it's a "shell" for the bell if you really wanna get technical.
How many UK households per 1 megawatt?
Probably far more than you would expect.
When engineers determine the 'load' represented by residences, you don't add up the total load of each residence. Instead, they take into account the ADMD, or 'after diversity maximum demand', of the residential loads. ADMD takes into account that it is unlikely that all the residences will be using their maximum power at the same time. In much the same way as you, as an individual, are unlikely to be using your cooker, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, toaster, bread-maker, etc., all at the same time, this is reflected across a large number of residences.
Furthermore, while one residence is consuming a lot of energy, the next door neighbour is likely to be at work, or out shopping, so might not be using very much energy at all. So, when determining the load per residence, the figure used is much less than you might imagine, and gets even less as the number of residences increases.
Back in the late '60s, before the widespread adoption of electric central heating, the ADMD was typically taken as being just 3 kW per residence (based on this figure, your 1 MW would be able to serve 333 residences!). Demand meters installed in the area substation serving these residences indicated that the actual load per residence figure would actually be very much lower than this! Since the widespread introduction of computers that are able to monitor the actual energy consumption of individual residences, the ADMD figure can now be determined with a greater degree of accuracy.
Perhaps some other reader can indicate what the current typical ADMD might be?

According to the US Postal Service: http://uspostalservice.marketingsyndrome.com/zip-code.html
ZIP stands for Zoning Improvement Plan which began on July 1, 1963 as a solution to the explosive growth of business mail. The Post Office didn't require anyone to use the new ZIP Code system at the beginning, but in 1967, the Post Office required mailers of second-class and third-class mail to presort by ZIP Code

Is greenwich millennium village a success?
Greenwich Millennium Village was designed in 1998 and now has over 1,000 completed homes built to new standards of sustainability. It is the first successful example of a masterplanned village where the design addresses environmental concerns while still providing a pleasant environment in which to live. It was designed by the late Ralph Erskine and has been praised for its innovative design and is regularly visited by students of architecture. While homes were being built and sold there was substantial demand for the new homes and now there is a thriving resale and rental market for apartments in the village. The developer is Countryside Properties and Taylor Wimpey Developments in association with the Homes and Communities Agency.
If you don't know where it is then why not visit? It is a short walk away from the O2 arena down the peninsula, so get off the Jubilee Line at North Greenwich.

Why are bank clerks called tellers?
It's in the meaning of the word "tell." Originally it had to do with counting: to reckon, count, or calculate. We still see this meaning in a few current expressions. "Bank teller" is one--meaning a money counter. Another is "all told," meaning all counted--counting all of them: "All told, he scored 8 home runs over the season." Another pertains to the rosary: to tell the beads is to count them off, as when praying.
