BBC Television Centre TourWander the corridors, visit the studios, spot celebs, rummage around
the dressing rooms and star in your own recording on a tour of the
iconic BBC Television Centre.
Founded in 1922, the world's largest broadcasting corporation still
records much of its television output from this base at White City.
Primarily an operational building, tours are arranged around the
broadcasting activities of the day, so change from one day to the next,
but will include a trip to the newsroom, weather studio, famous
doughnut and a number of recording studios. Keep an eye out for famous
faces and for TC1, the largest television studio in Europe TC1 is
responsible for recording some of the world's most famous TV programmes
including 'Fawlty Towers', 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' and 'Doctor Who'.
Visitors will also get the chance to fiddle around in an interactive
studio in front or behind the camera. Everyone has their own experience
of the BBC. From Janet Ellis frolicking in the Blue Peter garden and Oasis performing in the Top of the Pops
studio, to Moira Stewart reading the 6 o'clock News or Michael Fish
describing the weather, TVC is responsible for a number of historic
recordings and for broadcasting a wealth of shared images and
experiences that evoke passionate nostalgia in people from around the
world. Tours are for nine year olds and
over and last between one and a half and two hours.
