At this point, they had given me an verbal offer over 5 weeks ago which I've accepted even after I indicated I had lots of other offers already.

Should I start going for interviews again?
yes you should, in fact, continue to attend interviews until you have signed the employment contract. G50 checks can be prolonged due to numerous reasons which we will most likely never come to know. does your verbal offer comprise the annual package and other terms of employment, or is it just a neutral "we are keen to proceed further"?
