I had the pleasure of visiting these studios 3 years before they were closed and these really were typical of BBC studios in the smaller regions: makeshift facilities( a sixties extension was built onto a 19th century building that served as the studio centre), two very small studios, a cramped newsroom and dated equipment. However, the sheer professionalism of the staff in such a hellish building, it was said to be unbearable during a heatwave and freezing in winter, stood out and I met the legend that was Mike Neville.
Has anyone else visited former BBC premises like this? Mind you 54 New Bridge St was luxury compared to the tiny and cramped facilities Radio Cumbria used before 1993.
