Well, I grabbed these images from the DVD and thought they might be of some use

I always thought this was some sort of standard industrial material because of it appearing over and over. Evidently not.
There are some other surfaces that make just as many appearances that we could probably identify. I'll have to produce some screen caps to expand this.

It has been used quite a few times, the main time i can remember it being used quite a lot was in the 90's game show 'The Crystal Maze'. It was used in the FUTURISTIC section, i've managed to find a few pictures.
Ah yes! In the "Futuristic" Zone. I used to LOVE that show 
Wish I could see more than season 1 again...
I knocked this render out lastnight while looking at the plans form the DVD.

It's interesting to see the name Ackland-Snow on the plans. Is there any information on which one this is, eg Brian or Terry or Andrew?

Oddest sighting of these for me was on the DVD of the Beeb's The Legend of Robin Hood (1975), where they're on the ceiling of Nottingham Castle!

Really! i can't imagine seeing it on the ceiling of nottingham castle, i would be very interested in seeing some photos of that!
No information on "Ackland-Snow", the documentary focussed on Jeremy Bear.
That would be great

Voila!
Sheriff of Nottingham looks strangely familiar too....
Haha, looks so out of place!
I'm not sure I recognise any of the fellas in there...

Bizarrely there are ceilings of period buildings with a similar pattern to that in plaster, though usually a bit larger in scale...However, in a 12th century castle, I think most definately not, the floors and ceilings would have been been wooden beams supported by huge stone columns and arches or massive flat stone slabs supported by stone vaults, all very plain

It does have a look more befitting the Tudor period rather than that of the Norman, or even early Plantagenet.

Not to worry. Paul Darrow's scenery-chewing distracts from the roof most of the time!

Its been a little while since this was updated,
I'm currently working in BBC at moment and i was flicking through a catalogue they use for stock materials, one they have used for a number of years and guess what i found; (Bottom Right)
The thing is i guarantee there are more panels that was actually used in other episodes throughout Doctor Who, i'm sure on one of the episodes Four till Doomsday some of the panels in the space ship were sourced from here.
Heres the website if you wish to have a flick through

so lespaceplie's original thought
If you check out Page 45 of the Catalogue you'll find the tapered squares used for the microfilm in the Ark in Space Episodes and the vac formed people in the chamber is very similar to the bodies on Page 4. Check it out see what you think

Don't we have a thread about this pattern several years ago? I think it's under like "Adric's Room" or something like that.
