That £119 figure is incorrect.

The current pension starts at £155 (plus inflation increases since it
was introduced) and anyone on the old pension and only receiving the
base amount will be getting other benefits.

It depends on lots of things. Some existing OAPs will be contracted out of
SERPS. Self employed can get a lower pension unless entitled to more for
various reasons.

I'm talking about the basic pension that all will be getting.

Your £119 is still wrong.

The lowest full RP is £127 and change (per week).
