BNCS is the BBC's Broadcast Network Control System. The touch screen interface allows you to route outside sources and other circuits around the bit of the Corporation near you. It's a bit more up to date than the Mark 3 Desk.
But that hasn't stopped local radio engineers from trying to integrate it neatly into their studios, as Toby Hilder's photo of BBC Wiltshire shows. The Mk III OS panel has been removed and a neatly fitting LCD has been put in the gap to allow control of BNCS. Very neat.
[UPDATE] Toby has sent me a bit more information about this picture. The cubicle as seen is rigged for Radio 1's Big Weekend, and the large LCD on top of the deask (above the PPMs) is for the VCS Cartplayer system.
