When the day came and we went off air, the studio had to be gutted. All the
records, studio equipment and even the toilet brush had to be moved to the
new studios.
It was a sad and very messy time.

sure nobody steals the plasterboard off cuts |

Jim and Craig perform roof-eck-tee-mee while Jim has
to whole stilts thing completely wrong. |
|
|
The heart of the station - still beating. |
Jim and Craig still playing with roofs. Jim still struggling
to get the hang of those stilts. |
|

Tommy stops a box from falling over. He managed to hold
the box back for almost 2 hours. |
Suddenly Jim and Craig discover a giant beehive up in
the roof. Here they are trying to get to the honey. |
|
|
Malcolm suddenly remembers he forgot to put in his teeth. |
Chris gives a thumbs up even though the sea is getting
rough and the old studio lists to the left with all the weight of the
records down one side of the building. |
|
|

the right way up. |

The old studio. Looks just like a couple of porta-cabins. |
A couple of bits of wood fall off the wall. |
|

Tracey tries out her technical skills wiring up
a computer. |
Someone forgets to take out the rubbish - or is that
another vital piece of the studio technical equipment? |

Tracey checks that all the records are in the right place
before they are moved. |
Jim gets ready for more demolition work and like a true
professional, he has all the right equipment. |
|
|
Brian! Stop play with it! Concentrate on what you
are supposed to be doing. |
