Alexandria Palace

Situated on Roswell Hill in North London, Alexandria Palace served as headquarters for BBC television in the 1950s. In 1953,the Wire thought of turning Alexandria Palace's antenna tower on Roswell's Hill. Normally used to broadcast television into a a receiver rather than transmitter, stealing the electromagnetic energy of viewers watching the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II on June 2. This way, the Wire hoped to re-constitute a physical body for itself.

Gaining admittance through his psychic paper, the The Doctor struggled on the Tower with Mr Magpie, the Wire's agent while his friend Tommy Connolly maintained the Doctor's machine for channeling the Wire back through into a form of recordable media.
