Science Project leads to UK SETS




Guess what this is the plans for, well corner of plan.
Hint: It's located in the UK. We know the character well, he's a Dr. of sorts.

This is the corner plans for the 1966 episode Tenth Planet.

This is the quote.

"
A corner of a 1966 plan of Dr Who episode - Tenth Planet. The set in the corner of the studio is a Cyberman spaceship. Obviously.

The three symbols above represent the following: 2A is a Mole camera crane, A3 is a sound boom and 3A is a camera ped. These positions were worked out by the director for each set so that the cables did not have to cross each other when moving between sets and get tangled up.

In all BBC studios 'wall 1' is the wall which has the control rooms behind it. The others follow in clockwise direction. Thus the wall at the bottom of the plan is wall 4.
