Important art-deco building saved

 The historic Littlewoods building, formerly the HQ of the football pools and department store empire, in Wavertree, Liverpool has been saved from decay and vandalism. It will be transformed into a suite of film studios, shaped after Pinewood. There may be those who see this as unnecessary competition for the likes of Bay Studios in Neath Port Talbot, but it seems to me that not only will films continue to be made, for streaming if not necessarily for theatrical viewing, there seems to be a vast market for daytime TV viewing as well as increasingly sophisticated computer games.
