Filming began 10th November 2009 in the Quiet Place by Heslington Hall. It didn't finish until the end of March 2010 due to a number of things holding the producers up - degrees, [[Children In Need 2009]], NaSTA editing, and that goshdarn Christmas. However, Episode 1 was finally released to the masses on 16th April 2010. | |||
==Episode 2== | |||
Was written and filmed alongside Episode 3 between May and September 2010. Currently being edited by [[Simon Harris]] from a small bunker in the Arctic Circle. Rumours suggest a key role by YUM Chair [[Chris Young]], and the return of a familiar foe. | |||
==Episode 3== | |||
