This sounds too much like Good Morning Campus which went out every day for one week at the end of the summer term in 1995. One of the producers was Sophie Dennis other may have been Sarah Davies (or she may have jointly initiated idea with Sophie - I remember Andy Robinson may have been co as well because he got the provost of goodricke or langwith ( he was his supervisor) (he was good catch - maybe first appearance of York academic staff in a true presenting role - accept he was ment to have someone with him when he did the paper review.). Danette did present and so did Chris Barker. I have more too add on the show (inc photo), but did not want to screw up the current Good Morning Campus page.
By the way, Danette should have a copy of Miss dRAG as I remember doing a copy for her.

There are already a few programmes in YSTV which have had the same name over the years (such as Bulletin), don't worry about screwing up the original Good Morning Campus page - perhaps you could call it 'Good Morning Campus (1995)' or something? Great to know that a Good Morning Campus existed before our version! Kate 21:15, 20 May 2007 (BST)
Dannette wasn't all that clear - her email claimed it was
"The Morning Show" which ran for 1 week immediately before graduation time (spring 1995).
Which isn't all that helpful - I'll ask. Meanwhile there is a Good Morning Campus (1995) page for stuff to go on - there's quite a good still of the title sequence end still on one of the tapes I've dubbed recently, which I will find next time I'm in York. Richardash1981 22:09, 20 May 2007 (BST).
Graduation would be in July, so that would place it in June (sorry about Danielle, I should have said Danette - I am not sure where Danielle came from). --Otd 23:46, 20 May 2007 (BST)
Yeah, that would be right. It must have been June 1995. I remember working with Sophie alot. I also remember that Sarah Davies was one of directors (as was Adam Baxter). Owen, did you direct too?
As for the name, it probably was "Good Morning, Campus." I cannot remember exactly. http://ystv.york.ac.uk/about/realwiki/index.php?title=Talk:The_Morning_Show&action=edit I do have copies of "Good Morning, Campus" and Miss dRAG, but they are in the US somewhere in my room. I won't be going home again until Christmas ... sorry!

Great to hear from you Danette. I think Sophie was the main driver of the show, and now you mention it I may well have directed one of the shows. It was good fun to work on, I particular remember that you were given porridge to eat (there was some feature on eating breakfasts from around the world) and after you had tasted it you claimed you had been given oat meal. Miss dRAG was so much fun to work on - are you in touch with Lutfi? Hang on to those tapes! --Otd 00:19, 22 May 2007 (BST)
Hey, Owain! Sorry about that spelling mistake in your name before!! Anyway, nope, haven't heard from Lutfi in ages. Wonder where he is hiding out! I live in Japan and YSTV found me!?!?!
Yep, I do remember that porridge/oatmeal incident b/c Adam was the director that day and laughing his butt off in my ear when I said, "Hey, this tastes like oatmeal." Awe, the memories.
There was also an exercise feature on the show b/c I remember Chris imitating one of the moves when we came back live from the VTR. There was a weather segment, but I cannot remember who presented it exactly ... maybe Luke.
As for those tapes, they are valued treasures of my York Uni days - no way I will get rid of them. I promise. :) Danette 01:33, 22 May 2007 (BST)
Is this the exercise feature with the girl in a black and white striped leotard, and a very pink border round the shot that is seen in the review of the year? I'll try and find a screen grab or two. Richardash1981 13:04, 22 May 2007 (BST)
