YSTV and LA1's coverage of Roses Unlocked focused on those sports which were able to go ahead. They were timetabled to occur simultaneously at both universities. So YSTV would film the portion of the event in York, LA1 the portion of the event in Lancaster, and then these two separate feeds would be mixed into one final output which was streamed out to Roses Live.

Due to covid restrictions, the only way it was possible to view any of Roses Unlocked as a spectator was through YSTV and LA1's joint coverage. People could either watch at home on Roses Live or at one of the outdoor bars in Lancaster or York. The options at York were the outdoor area added to Glasshouse on East Campus, the Forest (a temporary outdoor bar open only in 2020/21 on Vanbrugh Bowl) or the Lakeside Tap (another temporary bar opened on Gregg's Place opened for Spring and Summer Terms of 2021).

YSTV's coverage of Roses Unlocked was led primarily by second years, due to a mass exodus of third years from YSTV as a result of Covid-19.

Six weeks prior to the weekend of Roses Unlocked, YUSU announced that it would be happening and that the joint broadcast of it by LA! and YSTV would be integral for members of both universities to be able to spectate. Due to the covid-19 restrictions in place, the reduced number of events would be more manageable to coordinate streaming with so little time available to plan. In total there were 11 streams, including the opening and closing ceremonies, and on top of that, it was also agreed that there would be a studio show to tie everything together across the weekend.

Roses Unlocked, whilst being a trial by fire, set the stage for [[Roses 2022]] in Lancaster. Due to most of the members of the Roses Unlocked Management Team were second years, almost the exact same team ran the coverage for the following year - which was hailed as YSTV's best Roses coverage in recent years, if not ever.
