Default Re: 8mm film footage of Television Centre

As well as the old TV centre which is now mainly residential use. The film also shows the BBC TV theatre, which today is still open using its original name of Shepherds Bush Empire. Next to the theatre was a small cinema which became a pub and is now semi- demolished. Next to that and visible in the film is Odeon Shepherd's Bush- now a hotel but some of the old facade remains.
In the views from the roof of the TV centre you can see the now demolished White City Stadium, which held, among other events, a lot for stock car racing back then.
