The first incarnation of the show was produced | The first incarnation of the show was produced by [[Chris Ward]]. | ||
It had a set with the show's name cut out of perspex, a very post-modern coffee table, some inflatable beanbags and a lava lamp. All backed by some velvet, purple drapes the station had been donated - sadly YSTV's ageing cameras couldn't do purple and the result was the visual equivalent of the standard [[black drapes]]. | |||
It also had a nifty title sequence showing arty places around York, themed graphics, menus and VT inserts. Music was specially composed by [[Paul Soulsby]]. | |||
The show was presented by [[Chris Stones]] who had previously fronted a sardonic arts round-up in [[Bulletin (again)|Bulletin]] and this was essentially an expanded version of this. Each episode Chris was joined by various reviewers who jointly discussed films, plays, musical peformances and anything that took their fancy. | |||
Contributers included [[Helen Wardlaw]], [[Anne Seymour]] and [[Thea Darricotte]]. | |||
Unusually for YSTV at this time, the show wasn't broadcast live. It was recorded largely as-live with a few edits made in post production. | |||
Sadly, the producer's graduation in summer 2000 meant this version of The Review managed only two episodes! | |||
