Jonathan Bufton first experienced YSTV during his university open day in October 2001, when he was shown around the station by Jenny Gordon. Upon arriving in York a year later he wasted no time in joining up, and was immediately co-erced into presenting the first Bulletin of the academic year.
In early 2003 he was elected Controller of Entertainment and Drama and soon after produced his first show Have I Got News For YUSU. At the May 2004 AGM he became Production Director and ended up producing around a dozen shows over his time at YSTV including Elections 2004, Good Morning Campus and the URYVision Song Contest. He also relaunched YSTV's news output as YSTV Week.
He was part of the Gang of Four that had to keep the station going during dark days in 2003 when the majority of the station's active members left all at once. During this period he launched his own TV review show Small Screen, which went on to run for twenty-four editions over nearly two years and win an award for "Best Light Entertainment Programme" at NaSTA 2004. The previous year had seen his Snow sequence win "Best Ident".
In his final year he held the post of Scheduling Manager, indulged his love of the YSTV Archive with Elections Past and was stalked periodically by Sarah Leese, before graduating in the summer of 2005. Soon after graduating he got a job as a Broadcast Scheduler for ITV1 in London, where he lives with other half and one-time News Biatch Kate Rushworth. Like many Old Farts he has returned a number of times for big events and outside broadcasts as well as NaSTA.
