Glaswegians will be able to watch TV shows being made live at the recently opened BBC studio at Kelvin Hall.
The television studio, which launched in September, has already welcomed residencies from Frankie Boyle’s New World Order - which was filmed in front of a 300-strong studio audience - and popular quiz show Bridge of Lies.
The new 10,500 sq. ft purpose-built studio in the heart of the west end aims to fuel the growth of Scotland's creative workforce and provide opportunities to young trainee graduates.

Audiences will be able to watch shows being made at the multi-camera studio with Kelvin Hall being described as a "destination for the people of Glasgow."
The studio boosts the country's capacity to produce multi-genre TV shows with the likes of Channel 4 prison drama Screw already among the success stories.
David Smith, director at Screen Scotland, said that Glasgow audiences will be able to visit the studio and watch shows being created.
He said: "BBC Studioworks first started discussing the potential for a new state-of-the-art entertainment studio with Screen Scotland in early 2020. The Scottish Government and Glasgow City Council immediately recognised the potential when we raised the opportunity with them, and we have all worked together to deliver this opportunity for Scottish TV producers and crew.
"Importantly, Kelvin Hall remains a destination for the people of Glasgow, as it is a facility where audiences can watch TV being made live – can see the wide range of rewarding creative jobs available behind the camera.”
Nicola Sturgeon visited the studio on Monday, saying it will "help meet the growing demand for Scottish film and high-end television production".
The First Minister added: "BBC Studioworks is a welcome addition to Scotland’s existing range of studio space and is already delivering expertise in the entertainment genre and supporting existing skills and training schemes to further develop a sustainable creative economy.
“The studio will help meet the growing demand for Scottish film and high-end television production, and its opening provides a further boost to a building that has played a key role in Glasgow’s cultural and sporting life.”
Andrew Moultrie, CEO BBC Studioworks said: "Three years ago, we started a conversation with the Glasgow City Council and Screen Scotland where we shared a vision of creating a world class TV facility, based in central Glasgow, operated by Glaswegians and used as a hub to grow the future talent of the global entertainment sector.
"Today, with their support, we deliver that vision through a sustainable state-of-the-art TV studio at Kelvin Hall with best-in-class operational capabilities and real work opportunities for local Glaswegians.”
