Last night on BBC Four. A profile of John Logie Baird. Relevant here because in the 1930s he lived at Crescent Wood Road, Sydenham and had his laboratories at Crystal Palace. It included some old black and white shots of parts of CP.
Unfortunately shows as Not available on BBC iPlayer at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/tv/bbc_four/2009-11-02
