BBC TV Centre. A hub of industry from 1960 to 2013.

There still seems something very wrong about the BBC having to get rid of TV centre.  I'm all for having regional TV production centres in other areas of the country but that building was iconic and of huge historical significance.  It seemed to feature in as many productions as it made and thanks to live Saturday morning kids TV, Blue Peter and the like, we were always getting to see around the corridors and behind the studios.  I would have loved to have gone on one of the official tours when it was an option but feel like I know it fairly well regardless.
