Possibly getting some more attention now because of some scenes from Andor 2 that were shot there: https://www.reddit.com/r/london/comments/1kb8k4u/lloyds_of_l...

That and it's also in the spy thriller series Slow Horses

which is good too, it's a mix of Black comedy and spy tension.

Michael Fassbender's character has an apartment there in The Agency as well

Living in the Barbican seems so very typical for a spy that it'd be like a give away.

James Bond obviously doesn't live there, but I can imagine any number of John le Carré's later characters (the early novels are set before it was built) would make sense.

Don't they all live in Dolphin house? I swear Neil Burnside did.
