Can't remember what day of the week this was (maybe Thursday) but it definitely finished around 7.30am on a weekday (not Saturday as it says in the article) as some of the crew managed to then go onto 9.15 lectures. Some of us just went to bed.. Cjw116 16:06, 16 May 2007 (BST)

I'm glad someone else thought Saturday was wrong. Near the end, when running a bit short on things to point cameras at, I think they turned the cameras on the crew - catching me with my eyes closed next to a monitor showing the big beeb clock thing I wrote. Tim and I made it to our C tutorial, though as I recall you only had to turn up to get registered then we sloped off back to bed. Looking at the date stamps on my C lab source code they're all Fridays, suggesting EN was Thursday. Sprow 16:19, 16 May 2007 (BST)

Yup, it was definitely a Thursday - I think all election nights during my time at York were on a Thursday. I vaguely remember having an hours sleep on the floor behind the sofa in the studio before going to labs at 9:15... Tim

A shot with the clock showing 7:30 am and someone asleep makes it through into Elections Past, although I never worked out who it was (to sign and date your post, just bung four tildes in when you edit). Richardash1981 19:16, 16 May 2007 (BST)

The only reason I wrote Saturday was that currently election nights take place on Friday night, was it when they moved to Derwent that it changed? Jonathan 09:38, 17 May 2007 (BST)
