Andi Peters visits the vacated BBC Lime Grove Television Studios and reflects on its history. Includes an interview with Peter Hawkins. (c) BBC 26/08/1991
I used to really enjoy doing vocal sessions in the recording studio at Lime Grove for shows like The Russ Abbott Show and The Laughter Show to name but two. The Irish guys that ran the bar also did a pint of Guinness so good that I first thought they were bringing in in from Dublin but, no, it was just Park Royal Guinness kept and served correctly.
Of course he was paid. However, Andi Peters has worked in broadcasting for decades. Both in front of the camera and as a Commissioning Editor. He is highly knowledgeable about the television industry and it's history. So it's safe to say this report was very much in his area of expertise.
It's only looking back, you realize how truly camp Andy Peters was/is.

My best friends, cousins ex dog sitters brother's wife used to work here.
Andy Peters is camp.
I assume that camp looking individual was paid to spout this nonsense.
