Tea Time Chat (a.k.a Tea Time Chats) is a half-hour weekly magazine show. It was created by Kate Whitaker and Joel Mitchell. Featuring different presenters, producers and segments, it is a prime platform for new members to learn different skills. The first episode was broadcast in January 2017.

Set

It began with two sofas at a right angle to each other. The TV, which wasn't initially used, was in the middle and a small table was angled parallel to it, with a tea set on top. The black studio walls surrounded this and a quilt covered the presenters' sofa.

Throughout its evolution, the set traditionally had the same set-up, but with a working TV, the quilt hung above it, the table now parallel to the presenters, and newspaper covered wooden boards behind the sofas. The lighting was also changed to create a brighter friendlier feel to the show. On rare occasions, guests sit on the separate armchairs.

Episodes

Episode One

Broadcast on 23rd January 2017, it was produced by Kate Whitaker who also was a presenter along with Joel Mitchell. The show featured a discussion of current affairs with Nouse's Anna Coughlan. She was asked to recite a constitution stating her recommendation of Tea Time Chat, a feature that accidently, didn't last, even to the next interview! Joel then did a tour around the studio and gallery with floor manager and camera op Sam Hance. In a humorous discussion in the gallery, we discovered the sound on the live stream hadn't been working properly. AJ Hartley was interviewed by Kate to discuss the York Hornets, along with a VT.

Episode Two

Episode Three

Episode Four

Episode Five

Episode Six

Episode Seven

Presented by Joel Mitchell and Raquel Bartra, this was Raquel's first Tea Time Chat as a presenter. It was produced for the first time by Sam Hance and Tom Lee. Planned as a Volunteering Special from the last week of Spring Term, it was broadcast on the first Friday of Summer Term, making it what is probably the earliest planned Tea Time Chat thus far.

Mistakes

It wouldn't be YSTV production without a few mistakes. Tea Time Chat has often found live sound streaming to break, with synchronising the live stream, nervous random pressings of vision mixing buttons, autocue issues, wrong VTs and random music at the end of a blooper reel (Ep.7) being a forgivable mistake at one point or another.
