BBC Elstree Studios forms a crucial part of the television heritage of the area. Its closure would come as a massive blow to Borehamwood.
If shows such as EastEnders and Holby City were to move as far away as Belfast or Cardiff then it is unlikely they would keep many cast members, potentially spoiling viewers' enjoyment of the programmes.
The closure would more importantly affect many aspects of life in Borehamwood and Elstree, with job prospects, businesses and local amenities all taking a hit.
It is time the corporation stopped dithering, made a decision, and let everyone know the future of the studios.
