World War II special tasks

edit

On this para on wartime use, it first correctly references the war offive but then later refers to the Ministry Of defence requisitioning the studios for war time use. The MOD did not exist until 1946 ie AFTER the war. I believe this reference should be to the war office, not the MOD Dondilly 22:01, 12 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Burnham Beeches

edit

Shepperton Studios is at least a 20 mile drive from Burnham Beeches. I'm guessing whoever wrote this got confused with Pinewood Studios, which is indeed quite close. 82.17.194.253 (talk) 17:34, 15 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

The Who's involvement with the Shepperton Studios

edit

Just wanted to comment that the pop group The Who had a strong involvement with the studios in the late 1970's outside of their famous performance there: "They took over six acres including Littleton House and J and K stages.". https://www.tvstudiohistory.co.uk/londons-film-studios/shepperton-studios/ It might be worth including this information in the article, since it appears relevant to the studio's ability to survive at that point.

I don't know what Who-controlled company this was, but I do know that the Who's company HoloCo was based out of the Studios since I visited them a couple of times to borrow holograms in '78. Indieshack (talk) 19:20, 27 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
