BBC已决定取消在伯明翰Tea Factory工厂建设新广播剧院的计划,改为在英国现有演播室录制这部已有75年历史的长运行广播剧《The Archers》1。这一决定系BBC £500m成本削减计划的一部分1。
剧组对此表示愤怒。演员本·诺里斯指出,额外的运输成本在五年内就足以抵消建造新工作室的成本1,并表示"这对于我们的技术团队来说是一个巨大的负担,也会造成额外的经济损失"1。表演艺术工会Equity也宣布将反对BBC的计划1。
BBC导演总监Matt Brittin已于本周三与西米德兰兹市长Richard Parker会面,探索在该地区继续录制该节目的机会1。当前的替代方案涉及制作人员和演员在不同地点工作1。
The BBC has abandoned plans to build a new broadcasting theatre at Birmingham's Tea Factory as part of a £500 million cost-cutting initiative, instead seeking to relocate production of the long-running radio drama to an existing UK studio 1. The decision has drawn sharp criticism from cast and crew of "The Archers," which holds the distinction of being the world's longest-running soap opera with a 75-year history centered in Birmingham 1.
Actor Ben Norris expressed the cast's frustration with the move, arguing that the plan undermines programme quality and imposes significant burdens on staff 1. He contended that additional transport costs over five years would offset the expense of constructing a new facility, stating that "extra transportation costs within five years would pay for building a new studio" 1. Norris also warned that "this represents a huge burden for our technical team and will result in additional financial losses" 1. The performers' union Equity has announced its opposition to the BBC's proposal 1.
Under the current arrangement, production staff would work at separate locations while actors record the programme elsewhere 1. BBC Director-General Matt Brittin met with West Midlands Mayor Richard Parker on Wednesday to explore opportunities for continuing production in the region 1.
