If you look at the positioning of the 1999 set, it was quite restrictive, despite being fairly small within the studio. The partially rebuilt blue set was positioned in the bottom left corner.

If so, also instantly recognisable.Yes, the small dot above 'N9' is the central column that featured in many a backdrop. Unfortunately, couldn't fit all the room in, as the actual studio in N9 is cut off in the above image.
