This building is stunning. I walked past it at the weekend and love how it's right next to another market - Leadenhall. The City never fails to visually excite me and I feel privileged to live here.
A pleasure - we do these things, they go out on tv for a small audience and the real pleasure is when someone like yourself sees it and enjoys it. Thanks
That's interesting to see what the building looks like on the inside - I was in London yesterday and was amazed at the building and the sheer size of it!
I started working for a London broking firm in the early 80's and saw the building being finished off. At the time, it really wasn't appreciated, but now, well, what an iconic building. It'll be a shame if Lloyd's moves out but Covid had quite an effect on its occupancy...
Yeah the late 80s early 90s especially was Neo Classical, Postmodern or Neo Gothic like the Minster Building just round the corner from this. dreadful.
I would demolish this in a heartbeat. It's pig ugly from the outside and detracts from the buildings around it. Is there any truth in the rumour that the architect was savaged to death by his guide dog? It's sole redeeming feature is that there are bigger buildings around it which hide this disgusting bomb site from view.

This is one of the more interesting buildings I have ever seen.

Jealous admiration and vicarious pride is exactly how I feel about it too.
I went inside the building 2 months ago, it was awesome. The escalators look like a work of art.

Magnificent insight into a beautiful building and the insurance industry
Thanks for uploading this, this is an excellent programme and probably the best documentary on this building i've seen
Great documentary Terry!! Wonderful. Thank you for sharing these insights.
The King's favourite building. 😄
Very cool video!
GREAT WORKS N CONCEPT
is that julian assange
the building is like Hong Kong HSBC building
May be the best late XX century building in London. Also, may be the only one good from that era.

Once a year the company does an open day and they let the public in.
I don’t like only one thing in this building it’s not deservedly the tenants occupies office space there
I think this is the ugliest building I have ever seen
