from 2023?

Kendal Avenue in Park Royal has a dog leg bend. On one side can be found Versa London Studios and BBC Park Western and on the opposite side is located a huge former distribution centre that is now called Titan Studios. These studios appear to be marketed by Locations London. Curiously, there is no studio website and the only production I can find that has used them is The Regime, which was made for Warner Bros. Discovery in 2023 and starred Kate Winslet. It is available on HBO in the US and Sky Atlantic in the UK. This series was filmed during 2023 and used many European locations but it appears that their base for interior filming was Titan Studios. Leavesden Studios were also used to film some scenes.
The whole site has over 200,000 sq ft of production space. According to the Locations London website, the facilities include 2 main stages along with a smaller stunt/VFX stage space.
– Stage 1 is 50,000 sq ft, 50ft height
– Stage 2 is 30,000 sq ft, 23ft height
There are also designated hair, make up, production, prop and workshop areas.

I am unclear when this facility became available for filming but I am assuming that The Regime was the first production in 2023 – unless of course you know different. This is of course somewhat surprising, since 2023 was the year of the US actors and writers strikes and most film studios were effectively closed for many months. I have not been able to establish what, if anything was filmed here during 2024. Can you help?
I have been told, but can’t confirm it, that the 2025 series of Big Brother is due to be made here. The 2024 series was made at Garden Studios, also in Park Royal. Please let me know, in confidence of course, if this is correct.
