Sarah Leese started at the University of York in October 2004. She already had friends who were involved with Cinematography (now Film Making Soc), and had intended to join their society and produce films. However, by chance as she was walking through the Physics building and was handed a YSTV flyer by [[Pete Nichols]]. She attended the Welcome Meeting where the magic began! She took part in the Bodge, attended the Workshop and even starred in Stereotypes (produced by [[Kate Rushworth]] and [[Pete Nichols]]) the following weekend.

It was also in May 2005 that Sarah met [[Rick Selby]]. Probably from going on about YSTV so much, he joined Sarah at the society in October 2005. Like all true SDs, Sarah let YSTV take over her life. She suffered from a chest infection in the Autumn term that was brought on by a bout of Freshers flu and not enough rest because she spent too much time in YSTV. In fact, she spent most of her second year at university in YSTV rather than in the library or at home doing work. YSTV was partly to blame for her poor second year marks! Toffs nightclub was also to blame.

While Station Director, Sarah had the fun of trying to put together the YUM constitution. It a very boring process, which frankly was a complete waste of time considering that YUM did nothing useful for any of the societies involved while Sarah was still a member of YSTV. Hopefully the situation has improved and the current members of YSTV are reaping some sort of benefit from YUM.


In March 2006, Sarah discovered she was pregnant. Fortunately for the baby, Sarah found this out before she attended NaSTA 2006, where she would have drunk a lot if she hadn't known there was a bun in the oven. She quit her degree in the April of that year, and informed her friends of this news at the After AGM Meal in May. It should be noted that [[Ian Martindale]] cried at this news, and one half of the table just said 'That's nice' ;-)

On the 16th June 2007, Sarah and Rick married. Due to Sarah's sister finishing her final year at Cambridge, they could not marry until the Cambridge summer term had finished. So that university friends would not have to make a special visit for the event, Sarah and Rick were then left with 2 dates on which to marry before York's summer term ended, 16th and 23rd June. As Woodstock was scheduled for the 23rd, they picked the 16th so that YSTV members would not have to chose between attending their wedding or crewing the outside broadcast.


Even though she was pregnant and even after [[Charlie Selby]] had been born, Sarah was still involved with YSTV. In June 2006 she co-created the FLOPPYs with [[Matthew Tole]]. In October 2006, she edited the Freshers Events VTs and helped with some aspects of Limited Edition. She also co-produced LipSync with [[Rick Selby]], and in 2007/2008 she co-produced and co-presented Your Answer's Rubbish with Mark Friend.

Sarah has many great YSTV friends, including [[Jonathan Bufton]], who she made a shrine for, and [[Kev Larkin]], who dubbed her with the nickname 'Sleese'. She is a member of [[YSTV London]], running their York branch, and regularly attends their social events in London.
