Rog Parsons: 13% of the UK population live in Greater London.
The cost of property in London makes in much, much cheaper to have studios outside London and to pay those appearing travel.
£20k a week doesn't get you more than a few square meters of space in London, does it?

Looking at Office Rent London: Definitive Rental Guide - UPDATED for 2013
You would get ONE room 25m x 25m in London for a year for £520,000 a year.
Seems quite straightforward to me.

Rog Parsons: I just realised you wrote "purpose built properly fitted out and efficient TV Centre". I dunno what you're referring to, but before it closed it TVC was a confusing rabbit warren of cooling problems and outdated technology... not to mention being too close to two underground lines.

charlo: In this sense, "national" means UK-wide. BBC Radio Scotland is added to each local radio DAB as they come on air.

michael: You would have assumed wrong, as they say.
There is no Welsh DAB multiplex, and no Scottish DAB multiplex.
BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru are carried on the local radio DAB multiplexes in the relevant areas.
You are to be in an extended "Glasgow and SW Scotland" area as I understand it - http://stakeholders.ofcom….pdf

Mike Davison: According to [1], £1,330m of Sky's income is paid out in profit. Their 2013 revenue was £7,235m.
Sky spent £2,487 on programming (including sports rights), £1,1117 on marketing, £673m on subscriber management and supply chain, £405m on transmission, £576m on admin.
Direct networks cost Sky £686m. I think this the provision of broadband.
It's interesting to see that the BBC spends an almost identical amount of money on programmes - £2,443m - but only £222m on distribution, £111 on collection of the LF money.
