... every summer for the past 12 years The Serpentine Gallery have created a temporary pavilion that sits on the lawn in Hyde Park outside the gallery itself. The structure is designed by a different architect each year, the sometimes odd designs becoming a talking point in the media themselves and this year was no exception with the pavilion being designed by Herzog and de Meuron and Ai Weiwei. The space is regularly used as an extension to exhibitions, as a theatre or lecture hall space and occasionally hosts a glamorous party or two but never has it been used to host a series of live London themed chat-shows. So this year it was with great pleasure that we accepted the offer to produce Thursday Night Live with Robert Elms...

... over 8 Thursday evenings throughout the summer months we turned the pavilion into a live version of Robert Elm's BBC London radio show, creating an intimate atmosphere of chat, comedy and music all with a London theme in this special London year and guests included Gary Kemp, Sir Paul Smith, Wayne Hemmingway, Suggs, Maxwell Hutchinson and Tanita Tikaram who all entertained an exclusive crowd of very lucky Londoners!
