-'s elections programme was the first in colour.
+Election Night Live 87 was produced (and presented) by [[John Cornley]] and [[Steve Marinker]].  It was the first election night to be broadcast in colour.
-It featured a rather largenumber of elements.  The main links presenter appeared to be based in the Physics studio and presented for the entire evening.  There was a panel of hacks and candidates, an interview set, a graphics presenter, live cameras in the dining hall, an "outspoken" commentator in the Physics concourse and a segment called "Let's Go To Bed" (introduced by a short sting of The Cure's song of the same name).  This was a set with a bed where over-the-top interviews with candidates and YUSU-types would be conducted, some five years away of a similar concept being used on The Big Breakfast.
