Interesting report on the BBC's then development of their new Mailbox HQ, references to 'Technology Corridors' and a good excuse to have a nose round a bit of Pebble Mill!
I met Nick Owen at the opening week of the mailbox where you could read some mock news reports (which I don't know for anyone else but for Nick's they were bad puns a lot like Midlands Today :) ) with the newsreaders there including Suzanne, Dan (the former Sports presenter) and Shefali.
Nick's faces at 3:58 :D :D
He hates any co-presenter having the last word, or ad-libbing a better punchline, here he obviously couldn't even think of anything to say. :D
There's so much Alan Partridge in him it's untrue.

@theidentman It's a shoebox, and those sofas are uncomfortable, let me tell you. The Mill was class.

Really nice guy and a really nice studio.
