BBC Radio 5 Live - Fire Alarm / Emergency Tape

[@TypicalNerds]

Legend says they are still waiting to re-enter the building while a backup studio takes over

[@bwc1976]

That is one funky-shaped table.

[@Kurt-n4z]

Tne emergency cutout music is actuallly quite good

[@transportfan08]

[@battlelord667]

Eagle eyes!

[@ethanch3011]

And on that bombshell, it's time to end...

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

1:19 and 3:26 you’re listening to bbc radio 5 live we’re sorry we can’t bring you the scheduled programme at the moment we’ll return to it as soon as we can

[@Leo_Gaming.954]

The emergency tape songs are 🔥

[@metro_ken]

1:30 We can’t give you the good stuff right now but we can have a dance session and advertise the radio station.

[@metro_ken]

Totally not off-topic...

[@jaidenmcmichael8115]

this comment made me burst out laughing XD

[@drewnewfire]

That was the only emergency tape they had since it was a building evacuation. They had to pick a random emergency tape so they didn't have any time to pick a tape with songs probably

[@sonotswifty]

@@drewnewfire bbc radio 5 I believe is a talk only station. This is their only emergency audio

[@drewnewfire]

@@sonotswifty I see

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I can see her moving the chair 40 times possibly she’s got the last few words to say to Chris who was calling in before saying the building’s being evacuated

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Looks like the radio room is derelict the way it’s all empty whilst the fire alarms were going off

[@thebuskingboys]

It takes 25 seconds from when the alarm went of for them all to get out

[@metro_ken]

Actually 28 lol

[@Revelian1982]

Too slow.

[@site.the-gamer]

At 0:52 the alarm starts

[@Cody.Fudge6]

Thanks

[@arthurvasey]

Doesn’t help when its entire schedule is made up of not only speech, but live speech - Radio 4 and 4 Extra are speech-based - but not all of it is live - especially 4 Extra - their output is made up of comedy and drama from the archives - even the stuff my generation’s parents grew up listening to - so the programme can continue if it can still be on after everything is normal - a music station can just play random music typical of its output!

[@RORBroadcast]

0:57 Attention! Attention! Please evacuate the building by the nearest available exit. Do not use the lifts!

[@Mr.WhiteStarMan]

Quicker than BBC News tbh

[@KJLovesRoblox]

The BBC Breakfast alarm went off i think on the 23rd of March 2022

[@BlueEmulsion]

Nihal fire alarm

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I had a couple of evacuation of my school when the fire alarms go off and I always wait outside the school building and wait for the manager of the school to be saying okay u can come in now

[@battlelord667]

0:53 eagle eyes!

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I can see the computer on the right hand side of the picture going off automatically

[@123_Pop_It]

Probably left on too long.

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I think you might be right Olivia

[@BlueThunderboltsiren]

0:53 *CHOCOLATE? DID YOU SAY CHOCOLATE? CHOCOLATE!!!*

1:50 - time for zombies to invade the radio!

[@transportfan08]

*1:55** - **2:36** good indet(s)*

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I can hear the announcement in the background saying attention attention please evacuate the building by the nearest available exit do not use the lift

[@Revelian1982]

They don't need a taxi, so it makes sense. Just use the stairs or elevator.

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Actually just the stairs avoid elevators

[@chocolateimage]

here we see some people outside the window: 2:53

[@Cody.Fudge6]

Where?

[@chocolateimage]

@@Cody.Fudge6 at 2:59 you can see some people moving outside

[@sebastianarceo8740]

At 0:53 the person's face was XD

[@battlelord667]

Does anybody know the name of this fire alarm?

[@Ed.E]

Idk, usually, they're proprietary systems installed, same ones they use in train stations/shopping centers/large areas ext.

[@markgillroy7073]

Protec system with a Protec PA/VA system (which is rebranded Penton gear)

[@chocolateimage]

i love these parts: 1:19 3:25

[@fwwryh7862]

They fell for it. Locked up in the basement with the writers of Tomorrow's World and Bottom Series 4.

[@battlelord667]

0:52 Why doesn’t that sound like a fire alarm?

[@dpog]

every fire alarm is different in some way.

[@battlelord667]

@@dpog yeah I know but why does that alarm not sound like nee naw nee naw like other ones do?

[@dpog]

@@battlelord667 repeating my earlier statement.

[@NeonCoding]

Could be that the BBC buildings have a catch-all alarm for evacuation of the buildings (aka for terrorism incidents, other natural disasters, power issues, etc.)

[@benwyatt7619]

@@battlelord667 Because it seems that every manufacturer has their own alarm, I’ve heard plenty like this.

[@agustingomez1590]

It was real or just a drill?

[@newsroom2458]

It was just a false alarm.

[@DanRiches]

It was a false alarm, however it caused a full evacuation of MediaCity. i remember being in the Orange Tower next to the BBC's Building on the day and no one had a clue what was going on cause we'd never had a mass evacuation XD
