Chris Young was elected [[Assistant Production Director]] in May 2010. He succeeded [[Alex Balmer]], who consequently became [[Production Director]] at the same time. Chris has produced many shows, including [[Summer Ball 2010]] and "[[Behind the scenes at...]] Return to the Forbidden Planet" (a production from Happily Ever After Soc).

Chris has also appeared on the pilot show of [[Fast Food]], resulting in three and a half times more views than the latest episode of [[Your Answer's Rubbish]] thanks to him wearing a rather fetching sweater vest. As a result, Chris was drafted in to be a contestent on the next episode of Rubbish in a successful attempt to pick up viewer figures. Other roles on screen have included presenting sections of [[Roses 2010]] in Lancaster and the final three hour prime-time slot of [[Woodstock 2010]].
