  1. IVE BEEN INSIDE THAT BUILDING You drive into an underground tunnel, then a steel door opens, you drive in, it closes. THEN you get out of your car and it is X-Rayed i the blast-proof chamber. You are searched. Then you go back to your car and to a designated arrival location. Each location has an elevator, when they come down FOR YOU, no one else, they have to wait. Then you go to a meeting room on a floor where no one works, just soundproofed meeting rooms. Its simultaneously really impressive/scary and very boring. You THINK you will get to see lots of exciting stuff and all you see are large concrete boxes, beige corridors and a small room and NO people. EDIT: The company I worked for used to supply the UK govt with all the Audio Visual Equipment - we kited out this building and many others. On my visit, I was just delivering some loan equipment - very high speed cameras I believe.

  2. THIS IS BULLSH!T not the video - the claims they "did know what it was for" - I've been inside it - You drive into an underground tunnel, then a steel door opens, you drive in, it closes. THEN you get out of your car and it is X-rayed i the blast-proof chamber. This is nuclear bunker-level engineering - you don't build this and think its and ordinary office building.
