Popular Culture
Up until series 7, the BBC television series Spooks used the exterior and lobby of the Freemasons' Hall in Great Queen Street as a location for the show's portrayal of Thames House. Since then Thames House has been used, although Freemasons' Hall is still used to show the entrance to the building.
The third series of the BBC television series Torchwood used Thames House as the setting for the arrival of an alien species to Earth.

—John Lennon (1940–1980)
“It is not part of a true culture to tame tigers, any more than it is to make sheep ferocious.”
