- ''Acting Up'': Helen visited the Riding Lights Theatre in York, to interview director Kelvin about 'Acting Up', a drama workshop for young people with special needs or disabilities. They receive funding from BBC Children in Need, and we wanted to show where donations go locally.

'''Producer's Notes''' | |||
This section is intended to help future producers of Children in Need by giving a run-down of what went well and what went slightly less well: | |||
- ''The Good'': | |||
- The set and props were thought through quite far in advance, allowing for balloons, bunting and badges galore, and the white boards were nicely repainted during the afternoon of the show, covering any scratch marks etc. | |||
- Many new faces were involved in the live show and the production of VTs, which is lovely, as CiN is intended to be a nice first show for freshers/new-comers. | |||
- Presenters Matt and Grace and director Sam Nicholson did a wonderful job of keeping everything smooth and calm, despite the ever-changing running order and a few technical melt-downs. | |||
- The live acts, both music and magic, were very good, and the set was made even more beautiful by [[David Heaton]]'s sparkling dot lights; it was also brilliant(ly entertaining) to have YUSU President Kallum Taylor rapping about Willow and how the 'funk' will bring you 'to your knees'. | |||
