I live next to this building and have only good things for channel4!! I need to find out if they do tours so I can update you all.
Not a warm greeting or welcome. Young Receptionists. Not my age group.
It's channel 4, the coolest channel, what's not to like?
Visited years ago when I worked in broadcasting and had lunch in their canteen which was quite fun. Nowadays am consigned to just admiring the sometimes decorated big Channel 4 logo outside.

ALMOST 1,000 plastic bags have been retrieved from a beauty spot in Poole.
Patrick Olivier, 41, and seven other volunteers fished out the carrier bags last month that had become caught in a metal grill at the end of Coy Pond near the railway bridge.
Patrick, who lives in nearby Surrey Road, walks his dog through the gardens each day and only discovered all the bags that had built up after council workers cut back an area of reeds that had become overgrown following the hot summer weather which revealed the extent of the waste.
He said: "It looked like it's just a metal mouth chewing up bags."
He decided to take matters into his own hands and on November 16, Patrick and volunteers from Millennium House in Surrey Road carried out their clean-up.
It took around an-hour-and-a-half to remove all the bags which Patrick said had become so compacted he had to use a hammer and a chisel to remove them as volunteers picked them up.
"It was nearly 1,000. It was really disgusting, there were worms in it trying to eat it all. That is what's going on with our waterways and it's been a bit of a blessing because it's shown how bad the problem really is."
He said he felt "gutted" to see how many plastic bags had become stuck.
Patrick said: "Since we ve taken that big lot out, it s all just flying through now and it s there, so we can t help that and now because it s all flowing through and people are seeing the rubbish and how bad it is they are all saying what we can we do? and I ve got 20, 30 volunteers wanting to come down on my next project.
"I'm just doing it because it needs to be done," he added.
Patrick is now looking to hear from anyone who can offer a van or their time to help with his next project which will see him tackle an area of heath to the rear of Coy Pond. People can search for

Just took a photo of the 4 logo outside. Great building
Well, I saw it on the pay to Portsmouth, I never been in there, but I wish I could see how is it like in there?
Nice and friendly place, good food and excellent kitchen staff
Very friendly Employees. They are the most independent. But know when to speak and when to observe.. truly great people
Great to have one of the most watched TV channels in this area with a beautiful design
Great place to work, you'll meet some of the most genuine people here
The staff here are wonderful and funny. Wish I could work with them more.
Media at the heart of London. Great company and charter.
Nice futuristic building. But I wouldn't go out of my way to see it.
Was throughly impressed by thier disability inclusiveness, and the great coffee!!
Visiting channel 4 headquarters in London was an incredible and exciting experience. Upon arrival you will notice an incredible structure dedicated to the original logo you would see in channel 4 promotions. It's a little hard describe but you'll know exactly what it is when you see it if you've always watched channel 4.
The building itself is a great spectacle with its modern architecture and glass bridge which take you over underground rooms before you even enter the building.
The staff are wonderful, a friendly and diverse mix of people ready to show you why they love being part of such an iconic British company. They offer a warm welcome upon arrival and keep you feeling at ease during your visit, answering any questions you may have.
I really enjoyed my visit and would jump at the opportunity to visit again, so if you get the chance to visit, don't miss it!
Love channel four. Great shows and content for everyone!
I was here on an visit. Channel 4 implemented diversity but they have a long way to go. I see that there are more young people that work there but unfortunately some of them have no skills in communication with their elders. Very disappointed. I will be making a further complaint. Regardless of age, race or gender, no one should be made to feel worthless. Never.
Very distinctive building for an excellent TV channel.
An eyesore of a building in the middle of Westminster's other historical buildings.
Working here now so it better be good I suppose lol. Honestly though, it is an iconic building and just a stones throw from the London Eye and Westminster. The minute you walk in you feel welcome. Went for my interview and was drenched in sweat, asked if there was anywhere to cool down, told the security guard I was here for an interview and to wish me good luck, got told 'you don't need good luck, you have got this. ", did get it, now trying to find the same bloke for the lottery numbers but can't find him
Lovely team at reception - always helpful and friendly
Quite a cool building with the floating 4 logo, and a park -type area around the back
Channel 4 - Used to make golden comedy gems like black books, peep show, spaced, & much much more, sadly these days they are more ads than programs!
Super venue. Really friendly helpful staff. Thank you.
Had a great event. Staff were kind and helpful. Fantastic setting.
Public art at front at street. Seating area at side.
I used to live next door to this building and it was always a joy watching the seasonal shifts of the 4 next door. When Channel Four started way back in 1984, it was massive and progressive: the network identity of the moving blocks to form the numeric 4 was one of the most iconoclastic pieces of broadcasting in the modern age.
It took the example of all the old regional network identities in providing a tiny motion pic or intro animation.
The 4 outside this building is geometrically arranged so that the blocks form a complete mathematical whole from which ever perspective. Innovative, and clever....
I like they people at Channel 4. I used to deliver their tapes from the editors at the end of the day. The lobby is impressive as is the classic "4" sculpture out front that really does exist! It was better before they painted the front of the 4 white. It seemed to transform more amazingly before. Now it's as if they're worried you won't see it's a number 4, so you can see it already from any angle.
Nice place. Let down by the fake news that comes out of it - i.e anything about Israel, Corbyn, finance, war, trade laws etc.
Awesome TV channel and building! C4 programs have depth, breadth and diversity.
One of the exciting British local channel with exciting programmes.
Amazing company that has great TV programmes on evrytime in switch over to the channel. I always look forward to watching TV after work knowing i can turn Channel 4 on!
Brilliant my favourite British tv channel no comparison on news andinvestitigitive journalism superb presenters outclass all others john snow chrishnan and all the team well done keep up the good work can't praise you enough
Channel 4 news at 7pm is my favourite news. The journalist Jon Snow, Christian, Caty Newman and all of them is wonderful,
Popped down with a colleague to record a voiceover. Nice to have had an excuse to visit! Friendly staff.....Just waiting to be called to host a chat show now!!!
They are scurrying off to Leeds in a epic attempt to be right on and anti London. Adios
Ok nothing amazing. Not as diverse as they like to think.
Great staff and proper greek food. Not like ......home, but close
Diversity,Inclusion & Young people realy is in the DNA @Channel4 it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from there is always oppurtunities for you to shine within the business and on all of its platforms they are winning right now ...
I was here for a meet-up event. Did not visit a lot inside apart from a section but it was great setup for seating, networking and nibbles.
