YSTV has a long history of making plans for programmes and them getting quite far down the line towards actual transmission...but never quite getting there.  Or in many cases being suggested (perhaps on the [[YSTV Messageboard]]) and that being it.  Here are some examples.

1997 - [[Joker in the Pack II]]
*A sequel to, funnily enough, [[Joker In The Pack]].  Filming was never completed on this drama piece due to technical issues amongst other things but a trailer was shown during [[Election 97]].  However, photos taken during production of the trailer remained on the noticeboard in YSTV's foyer for a decade afterwards!
1999 - {{unsure|Who wants to be a millionaire}}
1999 - {{unsure|Who wants to be a millionaire}}
*A high ham, high tension, gameshow blatently stolen from ITV. [[Chris Ward]] was a bit of a millionaire buff, and planned to make such a programme. Around 30s of (fake) footage was filmed in the studio, a contestant musing over an answer, which was used in the [[What's new in 1999]] promo.
