Did you know?
The BBC News team had a brief relationship with the 'Broom Cupboard'. As a consequence of the 'Great Storm' of 15 October 1987, the BBC newsroom suffered a power cut and the following morning's news bulletins came from the 'Broom Cupboard' - minus all of the children's drawings, birthday cards and stuffed toys.
