Could they move the NTC to Southbank or Chiswick .

I suppose since they got rid of the regional announcers it's just gradually got worse.Even the weather team have just about gone is Tracey still there she ran the department .

I'd say it's pretty certain at some point in the future. There's no real need to have 2 separate playout areas in different parts of the country

I don't know if they're in Chiswick yet but I'd have thought that they'd wait until that has settled down before adding other regions.

You keep asking this, why are you so keen to know. They're in the ITV Yorkshire centre, I don't think anyone will know or tell you anything more specific

If there get moved again Ie to the likes of Manchester then there could end up losing more tapes! and thus we lose more old show to the history books

They must store it underground, well at least they are not demolishing the building, but it will ultimately go this way.

Most of the archive has been moved before, some several times. They won't lose or get rid of anything important or valuable - programme masters are assets after all

There's more than TV programmes in there, they own a lot of films (including all the Carry Ons) which they inherited from Carlton.
