I assume it must have been, as I don't think any other region has decamped in the interim.It is baffling that one of the two touring temp sets has been sitting in Southampton Studio B doing (mostly) sod-all for umpteen weeks, when one of the other regions could've had its full decamp and LED set installation done in that time.
Southampton already had a set in Studio B for the past several years, which was basically the previous Oxford sub-opt set (albeit with some alterations/embellishments compared to when it was Oxford). Pan-regional bulletins would de-camp there each year (over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend, I think) during annual maintenance of Studio A.
The ex-Oxford set would have perfectly adequate for the couple of brief uses of Studio B that there have been in the last couple of months.
Presumably, also one of the two touring LED set installation teams haven't been doing anything for these last umpteen weeks. Unless the Tunbridge Wells project required twice as many people as any of the previous English Regions that have been done required.
