I did a gig at their technology cerntre in Woking, was a very surreal place. Huge great James Bond style place with F1 cars suspended from the ceiling in the middle of offices. Was very cool for the first month or so.
They had this insanely anallly retentive tidy desk policy where you couldn't have any loose cables or any paper on your desk, no food or drink just 1 bottle of water. Ron whatshisface would occasionally march around the building with Lewis and Jensen in tow and all the different wings of the building (they called them 'fingers') would phone ahead when he was coming so we could all have a mad scramble titdying our desks and getting rid of any coffees etc..
