In 1980 (when my study of the BBC really took off) there were 3 BBC 'Network Production Centres' in England. With the demolition of Pebble Mil, Birmingham & the move to Salford from New Broadcasting House, Manchester - Broadcasting House in Whiteladies Road, Bristol is the only one of the 3 still standing.

 

Home to the world-renowned BBC Natural History Unit, as well as a long line of antiques-based programmes on radio & tv (plus a great deal more since 1934).

 

Incidentally it's 25 years since I first walked through these doors.

Broadcasting House is the headquarters of the BBC, in Portland Place and Langham Place, London. The first radio broadcast was made on 15 March 1932, and the building was officially opened two months later, on 15 May. The main building is in Art Deco style, with a facing of Portland stone over a steel frame. It is a Grade II* listed building and includes the BBC Radio Theatre, where music and speech programmes are recorded in front of a studio audience

Construction of Broadcasting House began in 1932, and the building opened to the BBC's offices and radio operations on 14 May 1934, eight years after the corporation's establishment. George Val Myer designed the building in collaboration with the BBC's civil engineer, M T Tudsbery. The original interiors were the work of Raymond McGrath, an Australian-Irish architect. He directed a team which included Serge Chermayeff and Wells Coates and designed the vaudeville studio, the associated green and dressing rooms, and the dance and chamber music studios in a flowing Art Deco style. It was later said of his efforts that "the designs for the BBC gave the first real fillip to industrial design in England".[citation needed]

The radio studios were arranged in a central location and constructed of Portland stone. The remainder of the building was steel framed and faced with Portland stone on the outside. These areas housed the offices, so that they could be both away from the noise of the radio operations, and have access to daylight.[1] Objections by local residents also caused the structure to be changed. The east side of the building blocked out the light to local residents, and after complaints and seeking the right of ancient lights, the building was altered so that the east side of the building had a sloped roof. Underground structures, including hundred year old sewers, presented problems during construction. The building was built atop the Bakerloo line of the London Underground, while the Victoria line was in turn tunnelled beneath Broadcasting House in the 1960s, and has since presented problems for construction of the Egton Wing (see below).[2] Noise from passing trains is audible within the radio theatre, but generally imperceptible in recordings.

 

The ground floor of the building was fitted with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the street, as it was believed that to finance such a project (costing £25,000,000 in today's money) they would need to let the ground floor as a retail unit. The rapid expansion of the BBC meant this never occurred.

The original building also showcases a number of works of art, most prominently the statues of Prospero and Ariel (from Shakespeare's The Tempest) by Eric Gill. Their choice was fitting since Prospero was a magician and scholar, and Ariel, a spirit of the air, in which radio waves travel. There was, reportedly, controversy over some features of the statues when first built and they were said to have been subsequently modified. They were reported to have been sculpted by Gill as God and Man, rather than simply Prospero and Ariel, and that there is a small carved picture of a beautiful girl on the back of the statue of Prospero. Additional carvings of Ariel can be found on the building's exterior in many bas-reliefs, some by Gill, others by Gilbert Bayes.[3][4][5] The reception area also contains a statue of 'The sower' also by Gill.

The original structure is now a Grade II* listed building, and the BBC works with English Heritage on its maintenance.

 

Broadcasting House is currently undergoing a major renovation, aiming to restore the original building and combine a number of the BBC's operations in a newly built extension. Upon completion, the building will house the television and radio operations of BBC News which would relocate from Television Centre; the BBC World Service, relocating from Bush House, and BBC Radio, with the exception of BBC Radio 5 Live and its sister station 5 Live Sports Extra.

To make way for the renovation, BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music moved from Broadcasting House to newly built studios in the nearby Western House, with the intention of returning to Broadcasting House when the lease runs out in 2013.[6]

The building work was completed in two phases, however it began with the demolition of two post-war extensions to the building.

 

The first phase consisted of the restoration of the original building, by now starting to show its age and needing structural repair, and the building of a new wing to the east of the original structure.[7]

In the old building, the sloped east roof was taken off, and many of the rooms stripped back to their walls, although much of the Art Deco architecture was retained and preserved. Much of the work focused on the lower walls and ceilings which did not feature Art Deco architecture. The reception area was renovated to include a new desk, while retaining the message and statue as the attention piece of the room. Many rooms had ceilings removed, such as the south tower, and new reinforcement joists were added.

The new Egton wing was roughly the same shape as the main Broadcasting House building, featuring a modern design and window arrangement, but retaining some features such as the Portland stone used for the building. Towards the rear of the building, a large block was created in the side, mirroring that created in the main building, when the sloping roof was removed.

The design of the new extension, intended to equal in "architectural creativity" that already on site was carried out by MacCormac Jamieson Prichard. Construction was completed in 2005 and the newly refurbished Broadcasting House, and the newly completed Egton wing were opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 20 April 2006 as part of her 80th birthday celebrations.[8] All areas of the Egton Wing were fully fitted out and completed by 2007.

In 2012, the newly constructed wing was renamed from the former Egton wing, after the building on the previous site, to the John Peel wing, after the Radio 1 DJ of the same name. The decision was announced by the Director-General Mark Thompson as a means of commemorating a "great radio talent"

A prominant location for television broadcasting in the country, MediaCityUK is a waterfront property development at Salford Quays, in the Greater Manchester area of England.

 

Tenants here include BBC North, ITV Granada, Dock10, NEP Connect, and the University of Salford, in addition to a host of other media and service companies, as well as retail outlets, cafes, bars, and restaurants.

 

The area is also home to The Lowry Arts Centre, which is a theatre and gallery complex named after the painter L. S. Lowry.

 

Genuinely, the sky was that colour - overcast, very dark and foreboding. It rained (quite hard!) not long afterwards, so I'm quite glad to have been able to get this shot without getting absolutely drenched.

BBC Broadcasting House in London

The BBC is a national institution and provides probably the worlds best public television and radio service. The online services is excellent also. That said, the BBC has come under a lot of criticism lately over variety of issues. The balance between being independent from government whilst providing an appropriate service to the license fee payer has always been difficult and is under even greater scrutiny today.

Broadcasting House is one of the original buildings, but has recently been sold.

1. I am thankful for getting better at respecting my own time. I had a cancelled appointment this morning but already had stuff in my queue with which to do! :) It also makes me limit time I spend on tasks which significantly increases my ability to focus. What tactics do you use to respect your own time? Enquiring minds want to know!! ;)

2. I am thankful for the time I spend by myself. Spending time by myself means not having to explain myself when I blurt out, “It’s a BOOLEAN!” while doing the supper dishes! :) What idiosyncrasies do you have when you are alone? :)

3. I am thankful for finishing, framing, photographing and wrapping a piece on Tuesday.

4. I am thankful for identifying that one thing that holds me back from Biggification and allowing people any opportunity to enjoy my art is that I feel anxious about getting too wrapped up in Biggification that I could/would get sick .. and umm I can’t even say it .. about my transplant. This allowed me to put health in the forefront of my personal manifesto which currently consists of three words ( / Gratitude / make art / health / ) in a circle with two-way arrows. Identifying the elephant in the room has been refreshing. :)

5. I am thankful for reminding myself why I write the thankful lists! To remind myself that I do have (and maybe am much) to be thankful for. Gratitude lists also distract me when I become too enthralled with my own belly button lint.

6. I am thankful that you can never step into the same river twice.

7. I am thankful for finding more excuses to walk and smile - often at the same time! ;)

8. I am really thankful for beautiful writing books with unassuming black covers and smooth unlined paper that I can write and draw on with lovely felt pens that are able to last much longer. Do you have a favourite place and/or way to write? :)

9. I am thankful for Lindsay recommending Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia. It has some lovely kernels of wisdom that I identify with AND, like every really good book, it made me laugh, cry and think! :) What really great books have you read? What drew you to the book?

10. I am seriously thankful for the people that blog what they need to communicate (their art) accessibly and are finding sustainable ways to help other people make their own art. Without their help I don’t know that I would have re-started making my own art, continued practising making photos or written anything publicly. They demonstrate that you can make your art, whatever that is, you can find a way. It can take LOT of work but it can be done!! :)

11. I am thankful for people (OK! it was one person!) that sent me stuff like this art making video and this letter to The Kidbecause it made me feel better and inspired me. (They also made me cry dang it.) I am thankful for posting a link to an audio file that helped some people feel better. :) What were you able to do to help someone feel (even) better? Did someone do something that made you feel better (even) better? What was it, did you let the person(s) know?

  

Thank you for reading. If you don’t feel like leaving a comment to answer any or all of the questions feel free to send a telepathic message, I believe my receptor should be up and running again! ;)

The lowest two dishes came out really heavily saturated, purely as a result of hitting them with the LED for too long i.e. no Photoshop effects.

Broadcasting tower is a new high-rise student accommodation building in Leeds city centre. One of its most interesting features is the COR-TEN cladding, which, upon exposure to weather, develops a rust-like layer, protecting it from any more corrosion.

Most of the people I know are not very fond of how the tower looks, but it's hard to deny that its interesting facade and unusual angular shapes make it a very suitable object for photography :)

 

Had to get REALLY low for this shot, see the previous photo in the photostream ;)

Statue of George Orwell outside BBC Broadcasting House in Portland Place, London W1. Near Hallam Street.

 

The sculptor is Martin Jennings. (who also made statues of the poets John Betjeman in St Pancras Station, London, and Philip Larkin in Paragon Station, Hull).

 

On a BBC webpage Martin Jennings is quoted:

"... it seemed to me that Orwell was the last person to be on a plinth. So I have made him stoop rather to the viewer - so perhaps it's more that he's on a soapbox, engaging an audience."

 

According to the website, "The location where Orwell is placed has been an unofficial smokers' corner ever since Broadcasting House was extended in 2013. So it's appropriate that Jennings' Orwell has a roll-up in one hand. He's also given the tall, gangling, slightly cadaverous writer ill-fitting clothes and cabbage-patch hair which he thinks were characteristic."

 

[Martin Jennings says: "... the placing also seemed to demand words on the wall behind Orwell: it would have seemed incomplete otherwise. In the end Ben Whitaker came up with the right choice."
