Verity Lambert, 1935 - 2007, film and television producer, worked here.
The Doctor Who Appreciation Society
Riverside Studios

Originally unveiled in 2014, by Doctor Who's first Director, Waris Hussein.

Site: Verity Lambert (1 memorial)

W6, Crisp Road, Riverside Studios

The plaque was located at the entrance to the restaurant inside the theatre. In October 2014 it was put into storage while the studios are renovated, and then will be given a permanent home at the new Riverside Media Centre.

2022: From Doctor Who News: "The plaque has been in storage while the Riverside complex was being redeveloped, but will be rededicated at a special event on May 29th. In collaboration with Riverside Studios, the society will unveil the plaque in its new permanent location at the studios." Radio Times reported it successfully re-unveiled.

2023: We revisited the site and photographed the plaque in its new position, on the new building. The black oblong plaque (for Dr Who) is identical to one just a few metres away (not yet published) - very odd.
