On watching ‘Filth: The Mary Whitehouse Story’ I couldn’t help notice that the programme makers attempted to be historically correct by updating the BBC logo on the side of BBC Television Centre with the corporations logo from the 1960’s. However, if you watched Blue Peter as closely as I did as a kid, you will remember that an illuminated logo didn’t appear on the side of the building, but the words ‘BBC TELEVISION CENTRE’ in an italic typeface. What is surprising it that this isn’t CGI - it looks like they did actually replace the neon lighting in April of this year. Amazing the lengths people will go to (if only to get it wrong).
