Just a quick question about N6. If Stage Six at TVC (and presumably N6) were built in 1997, and BBC News didn't move out of their virtual set in N2/TC10 until 1999, what was N6 used in the period in between? Did it have another program in, or was it just empty until the corporate set was built?

Stage VI came on line in the autumn of 1998. The Blue set was installed in the new stage VI studio when the old Stage V studio closed. AFAIR the 1/6/9 moved into stage VI around christmas 1998.
