Thanks for posting this link!

I'm having trouble getting this link to work.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/historyofthebbc/bush_house/bush_moments.shtml

Is there anyone on this list that might be able post this for those of us
outside the UK?

Thanks

Sandy

Countdown to the Big Bush Bulletin on BBC World Service

                          [7][13-DSC03344.JPG]
                          Bush House Entrance...

  Ceilings are spectacular. Lousy carpets though!


  If some of last week's programmes on BBC World Service are anything to
  go by, many staff are moving out of Bush House with a heavy heart. It's
  been the heart of international storytelling since 1941 - if only those
  walls could speak. I note that my previous articles about the place
  have been well received.
  [9][iain+purdon.jpg]
  Iain Purdon - on air and on Twitter
  Twitter, in the form of BBC World Service newsreader [10]Mike Cooper,
  tells me the last news bulletin in English will be read from Bush House
  at 11 hrs GMT (that's midday in the UK, 13 hrs here in Amsterdam) on
  Thursday 12th July from the larger studio S39. Newsreader [11]Iain
  Purdon will have the honours.
  I hope they will film the last news bulletin in HD for posterity. In
  case you didn't know, there is already a really [12]beautiful HD video
  sequence by Thomas Hannen and Owain Rich, using quotes from an earlier
  documentary on Bush House presented by former MD, John Tusa. I
  especially like the room at the end where they filmed all the old
  studio and newsroom clocks that have been taken down.
  The problem is that this great video is buried on the BBC World Service
  website - good luck finding it if you don't know it's there. It's also
  rather weird that it is preceded by a commercial when viewed outside
  the UK. The HP ad doesn't fit the context.

                        [13][bush+house+video.jpg]
        Great Bush House Video Tribute, once you get past the HP ad

                    Time Flies - What a beautiful shot!
