The complex was built in partnership with Price Studios in Battersea, central London, and offers multi-cam TV and film studio spaces, on top of the existing rehearsal amenities already in the building. It also features an upgraded audio recording facility and new post production editing facility. Barney Rattle, the newly appointed studio and special projects director, will be overseeing the management of the new space and its expansion.
