Hundreds of revelers of the annual Santa Con event, gathered outside BBC Broadcasting House in Portland Place. They sung and danced to mobile music players spreading their Christmas cheer to passers by. Police officers arrived to ensure the road was clear.
I imagine this telegram was saved because the meeting with Roger Clipp, who was general manager at Philadelphia radio station WFIL and who was described as Walter Annenberg's right-hand man, led to Tony (who can be seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/guyclinch/33293488705) being hired and becoming a very popular announcer in Philadelphia. [My guess is quite wrong; Tony worked at WFIL by 1939 and possibly earlier.]
Tony's career in radio, which had really progressed very well, came to an end too soon when he died at age 41 of some kind of liver ailment.
Here's the text of an article on his death from the March 24, 1951, Binghamton, New York, newspaper:
Tony Wheeler
Rites Monday
In Owego
Funeral services for Anthony
Klem Wheeler, 41-year-old radio
announcer who was described to-
day as "one of the first real disc
jockeys in the business" will be
held Monday in his native Owego.
Mr. Wheeler, familiarly known
to Southern Tier radio audiences
as "Tony Wheeler" succumbed at
City Hospital at 5:30 p. m. yester-
day to a chronic liver ailment.'
He had been admitted to the
hospital Thursday. He had been
ill for about a year and had been
admitted to the hospital last
December for treatment and was
discharged early in January.
Services will be held at 2 p. m.
at the Estey and Munroe Funeral
Home, Park Street, Owego. The
Rev. Edgar Frank, pastor of Pres-
byterian Union Church, will of-
ficiate. Burial will be Evergreen
Cemetery, Owego.
At the time of his death, Mr.
Wheeler was employed at Station
WINR where he recently replaced
his announcer-son, William Wheel-
er, who has been drafted.
Mr. Wheeler was born in Owego
June 12, 1909, the son of Ezra and
Jenny Klem Wheeler. He was
educated in Owego schools.
He became an employe. of sta-
tion WNBF about 1930, beginning
his career as a radio engineer. He
obtained a radio license and was
second in command of engineering
at WNBF until about 1934.
Cecil D. Mastin, general man-
ager of WNBE, said today Mr.
Wheeler "was one of the fastest
code transmitting
men in the
business."
"Tony became very interested
in announcing from 1933 on and
acted in the dual capacity of an-
nouncer - technician during that
period. He was one of the first
real disc jockeys in the business,"
he said.
In 1940, Mr. Wheeler joined Sta-
tion WFIL, Philadelphia, Mr. Mas-
tin said, and "there he very soon
established a reputation as being
the outstanding announcer in the
city."
He returned to WNBF to
serve for one year as chief an-
nouncer in 1947. He later was em-
ployed in Rochester.
Besides his parents, with whom
he lived at 72 Forsythe Street,
Mr. Wheeler is survived by his
sons, William, stationed at Camp
Dix, N. J ., and John, of Philadel-
phia, and a daughter, Joan, also
of Philadelphia.
Broadcasting House extension before it was demolished in 2006. This was the 5th floor corridor between the old 6Music offices and the old radio light entertainment offices. Inbetween were lots of studios which were used for Radio 3 and 4.

Thanks to the wonders of "glass", you can see me in there. Ssh, don't tell anyone - photography without a permit ain't allowed inside a BBC building!
Snapped this as we drove past. This is BBC headquarters. Nestled behind is the new centre which houses some impressive architecture. Nice to see my licence fee is being put to good use.

Photos taken on Sunday November 2, 2008, Clear beautiful day.
3 different areas: At Sony Studios there is a giant advertising billboard on top of a giant sound stage. This billboard originally reflected the Metro Goldwyn Mayer Logo, including Leo the Lion. When M.G.M. sold the studio, the sign has also been updated with each new owner. Currently the advertising billboard reflects Columbia Studios, owned by Sony Entertainment. The billboard is currently advertising the new James Bond 007 Movie "Quantum of Solace", which opens November 14, 2008.
This group was taken in Culver City. Sony Studios is bordered by Washington Blvd., Clarington, Culver Blvd. and Overland. Sony Studios was also known as Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios. This entire complex was known as Lot 1 of Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios. Sony Studio is the distributors of the new United Artists Pictures film, Quantum of Solace.
Again this lot was originally known as Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios Lot 1 in Culver City California. The Sony Studio's lot has gone through a series of owners and names, including Metro Goldwyn Mayer, M.G.M.,Columbia Pictures, Warner Brothers, Lorimar,Turner Broadcasting, and Sony. Lot 1 was originally the main headquarters for Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios until it was purchased by Turner Broadcasting. Turner kept the M.G.M. U.A. catalog content including motion pictures, television shows, animation and sold off the physical studio. The M.G.M. U.A. catalog was also subdivided and has gone through a series of owners. The physical studio property was taken over by Lorimar Studios, makers of Dallas. Lorimar was taken over by Warner Brothers Studios. Columbia Tristar Pictures (Also has a long history, including being owned by Coca Cola Company) took over the lot. Sony took over Columbia Pictures, including Tri Star Pictures. The Studio was renamed Sony Studios with Columbia being the major brand.
Around Culver City, there were a series of other lots owned by M.G.M., however the other lots were sold off over the years including lot 2, 3, and 5, years prior to being M.G.M. taken over by Turner.
Directly across the street from Sony is the third subject: St. Augustine's Catholic Church located at Washington Blvd. and Jasmine. The main Catholic Church is Gothic in design. The current church replaced an older church, which is directly next door. It has been modified with the removal of its original church steeple. It is used as a Parish Meeting Hall.

An original M.G.M. Building facade is the Colonnade Building, which is directly across from St. Augustine's. This building was demolished, and the only remnants left of the structure is its facade.
