I expect it will go into TC2 - which is a "set/strike" set-up in the ITV Daytime configuration, unlike TC3 which has two "set-standing" sets.
Yes, it should not be hard, as Loose Women finish at 1.30pm on a Friday and there is plenty of time to install Peston set for Sunday morning, and also to dismantle it and reset for Lorraine.
Where is Peston going?

Presumably, with a week between programmes, there isn't any need to have a new set. They can just strike it in TLS and set it again at TVC the following Friday/Saturday to allow for some technical rehearsals.

Nope, Have I Got News For You is still coming from TLS until the end of it's series, so at least another 3 weeks to go
This is the longest, most drawn-out "goodbye" ever! Anyone would think there was a shortage of studio space or something?
I thought it was all ready closed a couple weeks ago

I suppose a programme like HIGNFY that's on the same weeks each year will book the studio space a while in advance. Presumably this series was booked in TLS2 before the closure was announced

Yes - shows are booking much further in advance than they used to have to, to ensure capacity for their show is available.
Riverside can't re-open soon enough...

Well, they did mention during today's Chase recording that this was the very last day of TLS1 - and the warmup guy even gave a potted history of TLS, as he'd first come to be on a show in the mid 90s (contestant on Blind Date) and had pretty much stayed ever since. He also said Potato were hoping to move production of The Chase celeb specials up to TVC.

I was there as well, this afternoon. Thought the warm up chap did a good job, paying tribute to the studios' history. Does anyone know who he was? I did sit there, look around, and think back to the shows that have been made in ST 1 - Game for a Laugh, through to Play Your Cards Right and SNT. A shame, as there's no building quite like it left, that's done NEWS, TX, LE etc...

Anglia House? Yeah, doesn't do all that stuff now, but has done and is still being used for some of it.

Assuming it was the same guy as last night, Stuart Holdham. He was very good, even if he did threaten audience karaoke at one point
Bradley gave a nice nod to it, about it being LWT and the times he’d been in the studio. One of the celebs did a couple of series in Studio 1 too so she was quite sad at it closing.
Part of the lighting rig packed up at one point which meant a break in recording and seemingly a ‘switch it off and on again’ with a lot of the lights for a few mins.
