The BBC Television Centre was located on Wood Lane (AUDIO: Invocation) in Shepherd's Bush. (AUDIO: Mystery Lady - S01E02)

History

During the coup by the Internal Counter-Intelligence Service, the BBC Television Centre was bombed, resulting in the BBC being knocked off-air. (AUDIO: The Longest Night)

With reported sightings of the Grey Man across London inciting fear in people, Vikram Shindi and his UNIT troops cordoned off a television station in Wood Lane and fought off the apparitions. (AUDIO: Invocation)

In late 2012, the BBC had sold the building to the Eightfold Truth, who used the centre as their headquarters. (AUDIO: The Eight Truths)

Alternate universes

Beep the Meep's ship punctures the side of Television Centre. (COMIC: TV Action!)

A version of the BBC Television Centre also existed in a meta-fiction universe, which the Eighth Doctor and Izzy Sinclair chased Beep the Meep. They arrived on 12 October 1979 just outside the Television Centre, chasing Meep inside around the studios, with Beep finding and mistaking this universe's Tom Baker for the Fourth Doctor. Beep wished to extract revenge against Tom Baker, but in the end, the actor's tendency to ramble subdued the alien long enough to allow Izzy to overload Beep's Black Star drive. (COMIC: TV Action!)
