"The redevelopment of BBC Television Centre in west London will be home to a new branch of members' club Soho House, and will also include a rooftop pool, terrace and hotel.

Original features of Television Centre that will be retained include the famous 'doughnut', atomic dot wall and Helios statue.
Developer Stanhope has confirmed that it has struck a deal with the members' club, with new plans showing that the £500m construction project will begin in April next year."
