I've come across these plans of the YTV studios both pre and post Emmerdale takeover

Before anyone moans about stuff like this being posted on a forum, they are already on Leeds City Council's website for all to see so are already in the public domain.

The main things to note are that despite previous information the old YTV studios haven't been knocked together as that would be physically impossible as the Transmission Centre is located between them, instead the studios remain as before and extra studios have been created from the old scene docks and workshop areas.

You can imagine the vast numbers of people who used to work at YTV in the old days with large offices set aside for Drama and Entertainment, Media Sales and umpteen different offices set aside for various levels of management. These offices seem to be untouched by Emmerdale moving in and are assumed to remain mothballed.

It seems the traditional YTV entrance on Kirkstall Road where the old chevron logo once stood is closed off not in use, Emmerdale using a rear entrance.

Interesting stuff.

It's worth noting that although Countdown is filmed in Manchester, it still has an office base at Leeds, as the writing address for the show is still Leeds LS3 1JS.

That worked really well didn't it. Obviously you can't link directly to the PDFs but the link posted above does the job
