Fire Forces "Regis & Kelly" To Relocate
Tuesday, May 29, 2007
A fire at New York's WABC-TV has forced Regis & Kelly to broadcast from the Who Wants to be a Millionaire studio all week. The fire knocked ABC's flagship station off the air Saturday night. It apparently started after a light burst and set a curtain on fire. The fire was put out in a couple hours, but the facility sustained smoke and water damage, which is why Regis & Kelly have been forced to relocate. They could have aired repeats all week, but executive porducer Michael Gelman says he didn't want to cancel a bunch of great bookings (American Idol winner Jordin Sparks was on today.) Over the weekend, the Millionaire set was stripped and outfitted with everything from a rear-screen projection of Live's terrace backdrop to lights that weren't finished until hours before the show this morning.
