Original Bullseye and Blockbuster TV studio given new lease of life

The ITV studios where Bullseye, Blockbuster, Catchphrase and Family Fortunes were once recorded have been given a new lease of life.

The Lenton Lane television studio in Nottingham has been turned into a new production facility to support the film and TV industry across the Midlands. Called the Virtual Immersive Production (VIP) studio, it will also help businesses reach new audiences using the latest technologies.

Following its heyday as a hub for TV shows the site is now owned by the University of Nottingham and forms part of its Kings Meadow Campus, where it allows filmmakers, performing arts companies, and businesses and individuals in the creative industry to explore digital technologies in areas such as virtual reality, animation, and 360-degree immersive sound.
