That's A Wrap! The Story of Wembley Park Studios
When BBC Television Centre was closed in 2013 many different programmes were produced to celebrate the history of the iconic site. Similarly, when Granada Studios in Manchester closed their doors ITV produced a tribute to the studios. So, in early 2016 when the news came through about the sale of Fountain Studios we felt that something needed to be done to honour the site. After a year of research, shooting and calling in many favours the following documentary is the result of all the hard work. Thank you to everyone involved.

The Interviews
The documentary was recorded throughout 2016 and many interviewees contributed their memories and thoughts. As is the nature of documentaries, only a small proportion of what we recorded actually made the final edit, so below are the fully uncut interviews for viewing.
