Yes, the BBC will broadcast seven pips instead of the usual six.
However, I leave it to someone else to verify this by direct
observation, because my return flight from the western United States
lands in London at 11 a.m. GMT on 31 December, and the combination
of travel fatigue and the need to adjust my body clock by eight time
zones means that I am very unlikely to be conscious at the critical
moment :-)
