TV-am, the first commercial breakfast show in the UK, was broadcast from Hawley Crescent in Camden Town, London. The only building in London with eggcups on it’s roof was built from scratch. TV-am started off life unsuccessfully as around the time it was due to launch, the BBC launched a rival service.
