Seven’s Martin Place Studios

The Seven Network's Martin Place studios, referred to on-air as ''News Central'' and based on the first five floors of The Colonial Building in Sydney are the main news presentation studios for, ''Seven News Sydney'', '' Sunrise'', '' Weekend Sunrise'', and '' The Morning Show''. Comprising 3,000 square metres, viewers and tourists can see programs being broadcast from the street level studio. The network claims that the Martin Place facilities are one of the most technologically advanced digital television centres in the world. Eliminations for the fifth season of ''The Mole'' in 2005 were also held at the Martin Place studios; the set was configured for each elimination episode including the final episode in which the winner and the Mole were revealed live. This meant that guests could watch outside the studio as the eliminations were being carried out live. Notable guests included contestants from previous seasons. In March 2021, it was announced that the
