The other day I saw Richard Ayoade standing in front of BBC Television Centre in west London (something to do with the Baftas) ...
Is it just me or does anyone else remember when the BBC told us loudly in 2013 that they were disposing of their entire London property portfolio because due to improvements in technology all TV can now be made in a warehouse in Wales and an office in Salford?
It seems however that although the smaller studios and central ring have been turned into very expensive flats ... no one really knows what to do with Studios TC1 10,250 ft2, TC2 2,400 ft2 and TC3 6,390 ft2 and so the corporation has ended up renting them back from the people they sold them to who don't know what to do with them possibly because they have Grade II listed status.
Funny how the BBC really want this edifice for the prestigious Baftas suddenly when, of course, hardly anyone's allowed to hang out there because of Covid. A shame. The highlight of the Baftas for me was always someone who won slighting everyone else by video phoning their acceptance speech in by satellite. With everyone coming remotely it's surely impossible for people to be snubbed properly...
