10 Downing Street

right|thumb|Number 10 is destroyed. ([[TV: World War Three)]] 10 Downing Street was the residence of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and seat of the government of Great Britain, and later the UK from the 17th century to the early 21st century.

10 Downing Street was badly built on shallow foundations by a crooked speculator, Sir George Downing, in the 1680s.

Lord Salisbury was the Prime Minister in July 1900. He was the last person who held that office to refuse to use 10 Downing Street as his official home. He instead allowed his nephew Arthur Balfour to use it. Balfour later became Prime Minister himself. (AUDIO: Upstairs)

As the Ninth Doctor recalled, a Mr Chicken owned the property and lived there. By the early 21st century, the cabinet room was almost impregnable for the safety of government officials. During the Slitheen takeover of 2006, it was destroyed by a harpoon missile. (TV: World War Three) The explosion levelled the building and killed all but one of the Slitheen.

By the time that took office in 2008, it had been re-built. Saxon, who was in reality the Master, considered the cabinet to have betrayed him and so gassed them to death in the cabinet room. (TV: The Sound of Drums)
