Over time it was decided that links presenters and graphics would be based back at Goodricke HQ, and Derwent would be home to interviews and obviously coverage of the results themselves. This would be the first time any part of the programme had been held in Goodricke since the last results night held there in 1998. There was also a desire for the "filler" programmes to be more linked to the content of the programme. Finally presenters would be encouraged not to dress overly smartly, as it was felt this was not necessary (and it made URY look silly). | Over time it was decided that links presenters and graphics would be based back at Goodricke HQ, and Derwent would be home to interviews and obviously coverage of the results themselves.

There were some communication problems between the two sites, but overall the new format was considered a success, and was used for the next three years. Due to less equipment being taken to Derwent the de-rig was completed by 4am, less than two hours after going off air. | ||
