No BBC Studioworks staff run or operate Studios TC2 and TC3, that is done by staff from ITV as far as I understand.
BBC Studioworks still provide some core engineering support staff for TCs 2 and 3 I believe.
You'd surely expect that, they are the equivalent of guarantee engineering staff on OB trucks?

Flats I’d imagine
I know it was always going to happen but I’m gutted. Goodness only knows what it will be come.

Gutted. Rather like the building, then.
What will it become? Two guesses.
Apartments on floors 2-12, competition to The Mulberry Bush on ground and first floor.
Or another office block.

A number of the support staff used to work at TLS, which probably comes as no surprise.

Well it was sold with the planning permission that ITV obtained, so I imagine it will be the same sort of thing as ITV planned - part offices, part residential and public space.
I'd say it's fairly certain that there will be a tower roughly in the same place as the current one

And another one ...there was a residential tower on Upper ground next to IBM and a Office tower next to the river with a office studios and small office tower next to Gabriels wharf .... and it has 869 bycycie places
Here is the planning document of 94 pages !

Seems work on the site had already begun:

That article describes the former ITV site as "Prince's Wharf and the SBK Building".
My assumption / educated guess is that "Prince's Wharf" is the former Studio 8 / This Morning building, and therefore "SBK Building" means the towerblock?
I can obviously work out that the first two letters must stand for South Bank, but what the blithering flip is the K supposed to stand for?
Over the years I've read/heard people refer to it as everything from "the LWT tower" to "The London Studios", but prior to reading that article I've never in my life encountered it being referred to as "SBK Building".
Have Careys PLC just made up a name that nobody in the past has ever actually called that building, or what?!

I think they're just abbreviating South BanK
I've never heard anything referred to as the SBK building throughout this process though.

Go to the link that Technologist posted and look at page 8, they refer to it as "Kent House", I'm guessing that's where the K comes from. "South Bank Kent" perhaps?
