[[NaSTA]] 2004 was held in Norwich by NEXUS UTV over four days in April 2004.  YSTV managed a 50% improvement on the previous year by taking six members - [[Dave Baker]], [[Jonathan Bufton]], [[Rowan de Pomerai]], [[James Flinders]], [[Jen Ayerst]] and [[Pete Nichols]].  This was fairly remarkable given the uphill struggle persuading people to come - as the previous year had seen [[Gang of Four|all but four active members]] graduate there were now only two people left who had been the previous year to enthuse about how great [[NaSTA]] is and how it was worth blowing over a hundred quid on!

Upon arriving, activities included the traditional Golden Bodge, which this year saw YSTV performing a tribute to BBC One's Bollywood ident, [[Jen Ayerst]] dressing up as Margaret Thatcher and [[Jonathan Bufton]] & [[Dave Baker]] impersonating the Chuckle Brothers (Jonathan would later be recognised as a Chuckle Brother by another [[NaSTA]] veteran three years later).  The popular hit parade tune "Milkshake" was also involved somewhere along the line.  Somehow XTV ended up with the tape and kindly put it online, so we can all relive the horror five years on! https://xmedia.ex.ac.uk/tv/watch/66

There was a talk from Paul Cornell, whose episode of the revived Doctor Who ("Father's Day") was about to go into production, and someone who wanted to take over distribution of student TV stations.
