I wonder if other programmes will be affected in general tonight? Presenters not being able to enter TVC etc?


I highly doubt this. Have you seen the size of that building?


Well some protesters made it to the reception to the studios ('Stage Door') so they weren't far from one that the Six is coming from!


I imagine that is the reason to why its coming from N6 tonight then.


Yes, just watching that now. Shocked they managed to get across a whole carpark to stage door. Seems the BBC Security were doing a better job of getting rid of them than the police.

I didn't realise that, a wise decision I think

Now to clarify, the reason this edition of Question Time is being done at TC, as opposed to elsewhere in the UK, has to do with security concerns for the guests, Production team, David?

Yes, protests were expected and so TV Centre is a better and more secure location than the usual town halls or theatres that they use

I am suggusting the racist views will get toned town otherwise the regulators will have something to say, and therefore we will never get the true views of Mr Griffin!

Is there a way we would usually be able to know what happened live? Am I missing a secret channel? Confused

It's never live so that's irrelevant.

If the BBC wanted to edit the content, which of course they never do then it's just as possible if it's done on an 'OB' or in a studio at TV centre

I wonder if tomorrow night's Jonathan Ross is being recorded at TVC tonight as usual?

Frankly your argument is pointless considering we're never going to hear the true views of Nick Griffin on a political programme anyway. The best hope would be an interview with Paxman or something but even so I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't hear is full, honest beliefs.

Have I got News for You, too. Remembering of course both of them use a full studio audience.
