Small Screen was conceived as a "filler show" running alternate Tuesdays with [[Bona Dicta]], in the autumn term in which the [[Gang of Four]] ran the station, in order to give freshers something to crew and take part in. The set was pretty similar to [[Bona Dicta]] - [[black drapes]] and a panel with a presenter. The original intention was that different people would be members of the panel each week, and the presenter would also change. However due to lack of interest producer [[Jonathan Bufton]] and his housemate [[Tom Hughes]] had to step in to make up the panel. The first edition (11th November 2003) was presented by Lydia Haddrell, and the second by Graham Ruddick. For the third, the presenter didn't turn up and so Jonathan and Tom hosted the show themselves. The rest is history! | Small Screen was conceived as a "filler show" running alternate Tuesdays with [[Bona Dicta]], in the autumn term in which the [[Gang of Four]] ran the station, in order to give freshers something to crew and take part in.

After 24 shows the programme finished (due to the graduation of the presenters) on 29th June 2005 with a self-indulgent programme of highlights of the past two years, hosted by all three presenters. There was also a countdown of the top five shows reviews (won by Monkey Dust) and the worst five (won by Mad About Alice). The final scene implied the programme was actually moving to be produced by the BBC. Ironically, Jonathan now works for ITV. No principles at all. | After 24 shows the programme finished (due to the graduation of the presenters) on 29th June 2005 with a self-indulgent programme of highlights of the past two years, hosted by all three presenters.

The last known use of Small Screen was in the 2006 Best Broadcaster, where it was included due to [[Rowan de Pomerai|Rowan]]'s love of the show, as well as a general desire to show all programmes made since the last NaSTA, even if they had since been discontinued. | The last known use of Small Screen was in the 2006 Best Broadcaster, where it was included due to [[Rowan de Pomerai|Rowan]]'s love of the show, as well as a general desire to show all programmes made since the last NaSTA, even if they had since been discontinued. | ||
