The modular building will comprise an interactive television studio including space for the live audience, three production offices, a green room and a preparation kitchen. The ground-breaking ‘branded TV’ cookery show will be filmed in front of a live audience, broadcast from the studio located at a Sainsbury’s store in south London and will feature an interactive element as the audience at home will be encouraged to ask questions via social media.
Accio arrived on site five days ago and despite challenging weather conditions the structural work is already complete with final finishes being added to sleek exterior cladding as they make ready for the technical teams to begin the communications and interior fit-out.
‘What’s Cooking?’ starts later this month and will be co-hosted by Ben Shephard and former Celebrity Masterchef winner Lisa Faulkner, with various celebrity guests and chefs popping in each week. The hourly Channel 4 show will be on air week-day lunchtimes, with a planned run of 13 weeks.
The studio facility will be complete and ready for rehearsals within two weeks and is another great example of Accio’s unrivalled expertise in temporary structures.
Accio Group’s Managing Director Stephen Casey comments: “Accio have been Sainsbury’s preferred temporary structures supplier for the past five years and are delighted to continue providing impressive structures for every aspect of their company. We’re turning the interactive TV studio idea from concept to completion in a matter of days. It’s another outstanding Accio Group project , from the ground up.”
