Gone Metric.

From this article:

"The large platform is about as long as an Olympic swimming pool and twice as wide."

I thought the BBC standard unit of measurement was the Football Field.


How are we oldies supposed to keep up with this constant changing of everything we are used
to?


I've looked it up - apparently the platform must be about 50m. square - now totally baffled.

Just as well they didn't mention anything about height...it's always measured in double decker buses.

I think you should use a length of 10 milli SWA just to be on the safe side.
