BCB Roll Out The Red Carpet
David Wilson approves BCB’s new red carpet treatment
As some of you may have seen, the BCB office and studios have been re-fitted with new carpets – including a stretch of red carpet guiding guests from reception to the studios.
David Wilson, Director of Bradford City of Film, was the first official guest to take to BCB’s red carpet.
BCB would like to thank everyone who got involved with helping fit the carpet – whether that was lifting boxes or moving desks, it was greatly appreciated.
