Quote: Ness wrote in post #6Nice one , complicated forum eh ?
hi Ness - welcome on board ! The easiest way to read the new entries is going on "Latest Posts" (on top - right side) When this page opens then bookmark only this " Latest Posts " page . So whenever you click your bookmark you'll have the latest postings (main page) right away.
If you want to PM s.o. then just go to the avatar (picture of the member) or the name of the person you want to PM to > there: click on "show info" (below the avatar) > (widget opens) > there you click "send message". After you've finished your PM you simply go back to the top of the page and click "latest post" again and back you are.
If you have received a PM your name on top will kind of flash.
I hope this helps and will make things much easier
I think the whole site at Shepperds Bush has been sold all ready. It paid for the move up to Manchester. But I read somewhere that some of the original equipment that has been in store for years will be going for auction. I`d like to get my hands on some of that. Microphones, cameras and parts of old tv sets. I would imagine the cost of some of it would be very high.
They will still use studios in London for some shows. At The London Southbank Studios. Also used by ITV.

Its just the thought of having an old microphone or and old camera from years gone by. Some of the greatest tv came from that studio so to think I owned part of it. As the young say nowdays it would be AWESOME.

I agree with you Mike.
BTW, the London Southbank studios, are they the old Thames TV studios?
As regards co operation between BBC and ITV, long time deadly rivals have been co-operating quite a bit recently and the Media City studios in Manchester, where a lot of the BBC programmes are now coming from (Match Of The Day for one) are, i believe, co owned by BBC and ITV. (Granada - Carlton IIRC)

No Coastie they was London Weekend TV Studios. After the break up of all ITV regions Fremantle TV bought the studios and all copyrights to the shows old and new. If you look at the ending credits to the old shows from the 70s / 80s and 90s your`ll see the Fremantle TV logo. They also have shares in a few TV channels. The Southbank Studios are quite big and it consists of three full size studios.
Thames TV was in Twickenham west London. But sometimes use Southbank too.
