At Chartwell today the Governor of the Bank of England announced that WSC will appear on the new £5 note. The image will be the most famous Karsh portrait taken on Parliament Hill in Ottawa (perhaps fitting given that the next Governor of the Bank of England will be a Canadian -- currently working down the road from Parliament Hill as Governor of the Bank of Canada).
Against a back drop of the Palace of Westminster, the note will also carry WSC's signature and the quotation "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat." It is due to enter circulation in 2016.
