Here&#8217;s an updated version of that with footage shot 21 years ago in 1998. The quality will be better because it was originated on broadcast quality Betacam tape. You will see some nice views of Princes Gardens with both of the original Southside and Linstead Halls. Maybe you might even see yourself in the JCR or on the original Exhibition Road entrance and walkway? I&#8217;ve added some captions to remind you of the names of certain places along with any new names that might have come about since 1998, an example being Dalby Court.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this might bring back some memories for those who were at Imperial during this time period.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jc2hLgDMqEs?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw June 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See the South Kensington Campus as it was in 1998 when the TV Studio shot this stock footage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[79,18461],"tags":[157,161,84,138,197,150,7526,83,18467],"class_list":["post-7952","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-campus","category-college-history","tag-accommodation","tag-buildings","tag-electrical-engineering","tag-mathematics","tag-mechanical-engineering","tag-physics","tag-queens-tower","tag-southside","tag-tv-studio"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
