Of the 11 surviving BBC English Regions studio sites outside of London, Southampton now has the distinction of being the exact middle one (i.e. 6th) to get the set update.
I think that the end of Hull's decamp and the start of Leeds' decamp happened at about the same time, possibly on the very same day?
Perhaps similar will be true for Tunbridge Wells and Southampton?
No region so far has decamped for less than 6 weeks, so I wouldn't anticipate Tunbridge Wells' new set debuting until at least Monday 5th May. If Southampton decamp this weekend, there'll be at least a 9-day overlap of TW and So'ton both being decamped.
Interesting how they've bounced around England, for the set updates. Starting with the two midlands regions, then doing a couple of the northern ones, and now a couple of the southern ones. So, it's anyone's guess what order Bristol, Newcastle, Norwich, Plymouth, and Salford will be done in.
