You don't get to see the actual door with the number 10. There's a gate with 3 or 4 guards with rifles or automatic machine guns...or whatever you call them. It's kinda scarey to think what society has come to. But it was still pressive.
before when i was a kid in london you was able to walk up to the front door with two policemen in front of the door now there is a gate at the entrance to the street,and lots of policemen.so there is not much to see.you can take photo of the iron gate, street sign,policemen . all thanks to al!

I could see the hall but the items with a glow did not respond to clicking. The rest of the house was just a blur. Not a very well designed site, requires a bit of refining!
Despite it being closed to tours, 10 Downing is worth a few minutes of your time, if only to snap a picture by the gates and to also catch the sign on the building that says 10 Downing Street. Such a historically important place is definitely worth the time.
Not a great deal too see really. It would be a much better choice spending the time at the london eye or a theatre.

Bloody Gates!

You can't get very close to Number 10, since there is a very strong iron gate at the entrance to Downing Street, and (since 9/11) a bevy of policemen in the vicinity. You almost need binoculars to catch a glimpse of the famous black front door. The main thing to do here is take a picture of the "Downing Street" sign.
