A couple of interesting BBC clips on vinyl pressing, made in different

The Vinyl Factory: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7973950.stm

Portalspace (Hayes-based, now private, formerly EMI-owned): http://news.bbc.co.uk/player/nol/newsid_7260000/newsid_7265800/7265843.s tm?bw=bb&mp=wm&news=1&bbcws=1

The second story supposedly celebrates the 100th anniversary of VINYL. "One hundred years has passed since the first vinyl record was pressed in a West London factory." Is THIS the quality of BBC news reporting??? Is this factory in Hayes or West London? Last time I was in Hayes it was in Middlesex, a train ride outside of London. Is this the 100th anniversary of record pressing in this factory? Or the use of Vinyl?? Did HMV use Vinyl earlier than 1931 Victrolac vinyl pressings??? Or is it yet another case of a reporter not knowing what the hell he is talking about?
