Problem 12: The three ties

One Sunday Ben Brown, Bill Black and Jimmy Grey come to Church wearing a tie which is brown, black or grey, but each wears one of a colour different from their name. When they have coffee together after the service the man wearing the brown tie remarked that the church was cold that morning. Jimmy Grey agreed with him. What is the colour of Ben Brown's tie?
