Porth Teigr

[3] It was officially named Porth Teigr in November 2010, in homage to the famous Cardiff docklands area of Tiger Bay.

Extensive infrastructure and public realm works including a new bridge linking the site to the remainder of the inner harbour were completed enabling access to the new BBC Roath Lock Studios.

The studios were officially opened on 12 March 2012 and will be the home to several productions, including Doctor Who (until 2021), Casualty, Pobol y Cwm and Upstairs Downstairs.

[2] Plans were approved for the new Digital Media Centre (DMC) at Porth Teigr in April 2011, with a design reflecting the dock area's history using brick and timber.

[2] A 3000 sq metre building was constructed in Porth Teigr as the long-term home of the Doctor Who Experience when it relocated from London's Olympia to Cardiff in 2012.
