Archers fans react as old studio stays put

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFans of The Archers are weighing in this morning on the news that the BBC has shelved its new studio plan, so the show stays in Birmingham, where it has recorded for seventy-five years.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI said the old room is the star, and I stand by it.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd even add the chairs, which have heard seventy-five years of village gossip and never once leaked.

4. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe chairs, Vera? I'm sticking up for the radiator. Sticker check: a new studio costs millions at the counter, and a knocking radiator is free.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA free radiator.

6. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSeventy-five years of knocking, and not one complaint about the pay.
