Broadcasting House details

There's now a full website devoted to the development of Broadcasting House. It's quite interesting, but I've not really learned anything new from it - yet! There is a webcam of the site which I've wanted for a long time but it don't work!

Nice to see some pics and the timeline feature there...and a BBC Shop!

Good find.

Take a look at some of the newsletters. Here's some various images of the main bit of BH and the new buildings bit ripped from the front page.

Does anyone know whether the BBC News centre will be moving into the East wing part of the new BH (purple below) or the concave glass extension (dark blue) which will link the old BH with the new East wing?

According to their website the East wing (on Langham St) will be occupied 2005/6 whereas the middle linking extension won't be occupied until 2009/10 (this date seems to have slipped from an original estimate of 2008/9).

If you look at the picture below, it seems most likely that the newsroom will be in the linking extension (dark blue) as this has a big open area in the rectangular bit with four small circles in each corner (those big pillars I presume). If this is the case I wonder what the matching areas that have two facing semicircles, above and below the newsroom are - News 24 & World studios?

Anyone else having problems accessing the webcam under 'future' on this site?

it's never worked for me either

Shame, but what about the webcam!?
