Working at Roath Lock

Welcome to Roath Lock, the BBC's state of the art centre of excellence for Drama, a place brimming with new energy and talent.

Located in Porth Teigr, Cardiff Bay, the 170,000 square foot facility, including nine studios and equivalent in length to three football pitches, is now the permanent, purpose-built home of four flagship BBC dramas - Casualty, Pobol y Cwm, Doctor Who and Wizards vs Aliens - as well as new productions in the future.
