Designed by G Val Myer, and built in 1932. An iconic building.
Some interesting facts: www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/keyfacts/stories/broadcasting_h...
What the photo does not show is its close proximity to Nash's All Soul's church, with its famous circular porch and spire. An extension to the BBC building on the left is also curved, only concave. All three buildings compliment each other surprising well.

The wonderful Tobias Golodnoff (Leader of the Danish Cultural Heritage Project at The Danish Broadcasting Corporation) gave us a little bit of a tour of the DR headquarters after the conference. It was *extremely* impressive.

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) asked the Boat School to build three traditionally-built Whitehalls as replicas of the boats used by John Wesley Powell and his group of explorers during their first-ever descent of the Colorado River in 1869. The BBC will film a reenactment of the voyage later in 2013.
Students at the School are building one 16-foot Whitehall, the "Scout Boat", and two 21-foot Whitehalls. Though Powell launched four Whitehalls onto the river in 1869, one, the 21-foot "No Name", was lost to the river shortly after the descent began.
The white oak from which the boats are constructed was supplied by Newport Nautical Timbers www.newportnauticaltimbers.com/ . The 16-foot boat will be planked in larch from eastern Washington, which is as close as it is possible to come to the original white pine planking used on that boat.
Whitehalls are the iconic American pulling boat.
They emerged in New York City and, possibly, shortly thereafter in Boston in the 1830's. It is thought the name derives from Whitehall Street in New York City, though no one is sure. By the mid-19th century, they could be found anywhere there was a sizeable body of water - the East Coast, the Great Lakes, and the Pacific Coast at San Francisco all boasted boatbuilders turning out Whitehalls.
The boats were usually used under oars and occasionally sail as fast harbor ferries and the boat used to take harbor pilots out to meet inbound sailing ships. They have a fine reputation as fast, easy-rowing vessels that are capable of carrying a great deal of weight.
Nearly all Whitehalls were carvel-built with white cedar planking on an oak backbone with oak frames. (Carvel planking means that the planks butted up against each other, edge to edge, which results in a smooth hull). The finer boats were highlighted with a bright sheer plank (the top plank) varnished to catch one's eye.
There is surprisingly little known about the boats used by the 1869 Powell Expedition, the first to descend the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River. We do know that the Powell Expedition boats were built in Chicago IL to Powell's specifications.
It's known that the EMMA DEAN, or the "Scout Boat" as Powell called it was 16 feet long and planked in white pine, that the other boats (MAID OF THE CANON, KITTY CLYDE's SISTER and NO NAME) were 21 feet long and planked in white oak with twice the number of frames and doubled stems and stern posts. (NO NAME was lost to the river shortly after Powell began the descent, though her crew survived).
There are no complete descriptions of the boats themselves, no pictures, and only a few scattered references made to the boats in the surviving journals and records of the Expedition.
The three boats we are building for the BBC are being constructed to the best information available, using the general scantlings provided by John Gardner's historical work, extent plans, our significant experience in building Whitehalls over our 32 years, and the historical data available to us.
The boats will be completed by mid-July, 2013.

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.

"This time capsule was placed by George Howard, chairman of the British Broadcasting Corporation on 17th November 1982. Not to be opened until 3982."
A Barclaycard, an IUD coil, a cheap pair of earrings and a zip fastener are among 128 objects, and 698 items on microfilm, videotape, audio cassettes and discs, buried in a steel cylinder under this plaque. I think they're pretty optimistic to think it will survive 2000 years! Then again, if it's made of Sheffield Steel...

Castle Howard is a stately home (so not a true castle) in North Yorkshire, about 15 miles north of York. It is a private residence, and has been the home of the Carlisle branch of the Howard family for more than 300 years. It is familiar to television and film audiences as the fictional "Brideshead", both in Granada Television's 1981 adaptation of Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited and a 2008 remake for cinema. Today, it is part of the Treasure Houses of England group of heritage houses.
From May 1956 until recently, this was the beating heart of regional telly in this part of the North West on the ITV network, but now all that has been transferred to the characterless and frankly unprepossessing Media City on the other side of the Irwell in Salford Quays - a venue shared by the BBC, who also broadcast from the iconic (and should never have been closed) Television Centre. Anyway. this was Quay Street Studios, home to a television station named by founder Leonard Bernstein after his favourite place - the Sierra Granada mountain range in the Andalusia region (pronounced 'Andaloothia') of Spain.
"What Manchester sees today London will see tomorrow" was his proud boast in the year when Britain and France invaded Suez, only for America to tell them to get out of there. Because it wasn't a war they started, they had to get jealous but I digress.
This was also where Richard Madeley (big, BIG fan of Tesco!) met Judy Finnegan who cheerfully told him on his first day at the station back in 1982 that she 'was his mummy' and, let's face it, the years haven't exactly been kind to her!
Of course, I should really have taken a few photos of this in the past when it was an active TV studios but what spurred me into action was Peter Kay's tribute to the station Goodbye Granadaland and that was a week before I took these shots. Why a week you may ask? Well, because I forgot to charge my camera battery the night before I first went (June 16), I had to make do with the camera on an old mobile phone. I only took a few photos with that because I was used to MY camera. Anyway, long story short, as soon as I got home that day, I put the battery on charge and it was ready the following week. This shot is of the main entrance on Great John Street and, if you click on 'All Sizes' you can just about make out where the letters 'GRANADA TELEVISION' would have been on the canopy.
Oh yeah, you may be wondering how the title came about. Well, years ago when the telly started at half nine in the am, they were the words you would have heard uttered in the dulcet tones of Graham James or whoever was announcer that day.
Showing my age, aren't I? But hey, I don't give a fuck!

The transom log is a structural part of the backbone. It rests on the keel, and extends vertically from the keel at the end of the boat. The transom is fastened to the outside of the transom log.
Boatshop workbenches are heavily constructed so that they can be used for heavy construction if needed. They weigh about 250 pounds a piece. There is usually a long vise on each end of the bench, which allows two students to use the same bench. The tops are constructed of two layers of 2x6 pine, and painted white each year so they can be used as a drawing surface as well.
