I would certanly not want to live in the "EAST TOWER"as a resident.
However, for 5 years in the early 70s I did for 12 hours a day 4 plus days a week. As a new junior member of Film Dept I worked in the Transfer Suite before going on the road as recordist.
I enjoyed most of it.
Especially I enjoyed what I considered an unbroken unofficial Guiness Book of Records entry (NOT) of transferring "CANNON" from 35mm optical sound track to SepMag so the advert overlays could be edited out.
In the quiet period after 7pm Geoff Webb and I loaded a 10 minute reel of the programme in projection, locked it to the recorder in Transfer and ran it.  We then ran up one floor, over the bridge,up to the 4th floor..downed a pint of Guiness and got back to TC Transfer within 10 mins and loaded  the next roll. We did this 5 times, downed 5 pints and completed the 50 minute programme within 60 mins.  God.. Can't even drink a couple of pints in an hour now without the run (other than to the lou)
Those were the days!
