Why Would BBC 1 Go Off Air At Television Centre With Programes?
-
thumbs up if you were expecting the power to go out in that studio in the middle of the report about the power cuts
-
@shirleygibson Radio & 5 live are both broadcast from BBC TV Centre the same as BBC TV news. Thats why they got affected as well.
-
Maybe but its the best bnews service there is, this is recognised internationally, so if the BBC stinks everything else must reek
-
it was actually a complex event, they have backups of course, but the powercut caused a freak electrical problem that caused overheating in electrical equipment that stopped the backup diesel generators working
-
poor buggers, the power went out on them at 1:08 too!
-
@pidge80 power cut cannot be prevented
-
Why the hell don't they have a back up generator
That's hardly fair. I think even the world's largest and best newsgathering operation is going to have problems at times. Why do I think you're probably not a regular viewer?
