BBC Question Time makes third visit to Queen Mary, University of London
October 2011
Queen Mary, University of London's Octagon played host to BBC One's current affairs panel show 'Question Time' for a third time on Thursday 13 October 2011.
Joining David Dimbleby as host were Health Secretary Andrew Lansley MP, former Mayor of London Ken Livingstone, Deputy Editor of the Evening Standard Sarah Sands, Director General of the Institute of Economic Affairs Mark Littlewood and GP and Comedian Dr. Phil Hammond.
Since 1979, Question Time has offered British voters the opportunity to question top decision-makers and commentators on topical news and events of the day.
Held in the university's former library, the Victorian, Grade II listed Octagon offers a flexible space with the historic backdrop of leather bound books on two levels, an impressive octagonal domed ceiling and carved busts of famous literati.
The Octagon is just one of over 100 rooms available for hire at Queen Mary's three central London campuses (in zones 1 and 2), with the Mile End campus just two miles from Canary Wharf, the City of London and 2012 Olympic site in Stratford. The campuses offer flexible spaces ranging from seminar rooms for 10 to lecture theatres for 300 and networking space for 400 supported by an in house hospitality team.
