You won't find this one in many tour books, but it from this building that millions of people around the world got their first impressions of England. This is Bush House, home base for the BBC World Service from 1940 to 2008. This photograph is taken from the Aldwych Circle side of the building which is sandwiched between Melbourne House and India House. The inscription above the columns reads, "Friendship Between English-Speaking Peoples." On the opposite side is a gift shop which sells items related to their broadcasts. At the reception desk you can pick up a transmission schedule for your region, but there are no tours. Domestic BBC programming comes from Broadcasting House in another part of the city, and tours of that facility are available.

  Bush House, especially when seen from the other direction, coming down Kingsway, is quite remarkable.Although it most was used as offices for the BBC World Service, The Revenue & Customs Stamp Duty office is based in one of the wings of the building
