That's living alright

This is the first flat in MediacityUK I've spotted on the open rental market - one bedroom, unfurnished, coming in at £675 a month.

If you're a BBC employee due to move from London, you can claim £1900 a month in allowances to rent rather than move, payable for two years.  Even after, say, 40% tax, you'd have £27,360 left over to cover two years' other expenses, if you rented this pad.
