The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) agreed to sell the BBC Elstree Centre to AXA Investment Managers (AXA SA). The site was originally built as a film studio for Neptune Films in 1914. It was then converted for use as a television studio in 1960. In 1984, the site was sold to the BBC. The site was the set for the T.V. show the “EastEnders”.

The BBC will still have use of the facilities after agreeing to lease part of the studio campus for 25 years. The property is located in in North West London. The campus includes seven stages and currently includes workshop, office and post-production facilities.
