The end of second term, Easter Break and the start of third term were all heavily dominated by [[Roses 2021]], officially known as Roses Unlocked. This Roses worked differently from most others, involving digitally assisted fixtures, that took place simultaneously in both York and Lancaster, being linked together by the coverage of YSTV and LA1TV. Joe led the coverage as Roses Lead and headed up the planning and the weekend itself. A gargantuan effort, involving 38 YSTV crew members (only 3 of whom had worked on a Roses before) and ultimately a huge success. Despite some setbacks, with one stream that didn't go live and a key member who dropped out on Saturday morning, Joe worked with the incredible team to hold everything together and ensure that things ran smoothly from that point onwards (which he was mostly successful in doing). | The end of second term, Easter Break and the start of third term were all heavily dominated by [[Roses 2021]], officially known as Roses Unlocked.

Following the Chaos of [[Roses 2021]], Joe then went on an excursion to Surrey for a day to return some hired cameras, only to return home and immediately run AGM of 2021. This event, much to Joe's testament for planning it two days after Roses, lasted less than 2 hours and is very possibly the shortest AGM in YSTV's history. | Following the Chaos of [[Roses 2021]], Joe then went on an excursion to Surrey for a day to return some hired cameras, only to return home and immediately run AGM of 2021.

In YSTV's 2021 elections, Joe was successfully re-elected as Station Director, making him the 5th SD to receive a second term. Following re-election, and now a part of [[The Big Five]], Joe set about to bring YSTV back into life as much as possible, with the pandemic at long last gradually thawing. He assisted with the Eurovision after shows, ran the FLOPPYs alongside [[Sophie Bolwell-Davies]], and produced YSTV's coverage of the [[Love York Awards]]. It was at the Love York Awards that YSTV won Student Group of the Year, which is still perhaps Joe's proudest achievement. He also won Highly Commended for Best Sport Journalist at the Colours Ball for his work on Roses Unlocked. | In YSTV's 2021 elections, Joe was successfully re-elected as Station Director, making him the 5th SD to receive a second term.
