I guess as well moving tge One probably helped justify spending a bit more on the Breakfast studio.Worth noting that the One Show studio space was originally meant to be a space for a BBC Shop.
I seem to recall that a planning condition or agreement was that the space was supposed to be used for educational purposes during the daytime, or something to that effect. If this is the case, though they may have been pushing it slightly when Morning Live originally came from that studio it was still a limited run series, and the same for Rip Off Britain Live. I've no idea if it's used in the daytime these days for non-TV stuff.
