The most notable productions that Thomas was involved with for the rest of summer term were [[Everything Sucks]] (which he co-directed and co-edited), [[Summer Ball 2019]], [[Love York Awards 2019]] (which he also co-directed and produced) and the camping trip to Scarborough on the very next day. He also teamed up with [[Joe Wharfe]] to compete in the first episode of [[YSTV does Hunted]], which they promptly lost.

He returned to York many weeks before the next academic year in order to get back into YSTV work, together with his partner in crime [[Stephanie Shires|Steph]]. This mainly included diving back into [[edit hell]], from which he emerged with projects like [[Beautiful Yorkshire]]. He also tried to establish a short-lived working relationship with [[York Vision]] and a much longer-lived relationship with the new [[YUSU]] Sabbs - partially due to his status as TFTI's Department Representative and personal friendship with the current Academic Officer.

Due to shooting a non-YSTV short film the week before [[Freshers Week 2020]] and a YSTV-related 48h film ([[Coming Up Next]]), Thomas was only marginally involved with the regular coverage of the week. However, he still produced and edited [[Zoe and Jonny's Drunk Diaries]] and presented several hours of the [[Freshers' Fair 2020]] livestream. Ultimately, the committee's efforts resulted in the biggest intake of new members YSTV had recorded to that day, including future key station members like soon-to-be [[Station Director]] [[Joe Radford]].

For the rest of autumn term, Thomas' work centred around presenting several [[YSTV Reports]] videos and the key productions of [[Lost]] (for which he teamed up with [[Matthew Zeffertt]] and once again promptly lost), [[YSTV does Hunted - Episode 2]] and [[Please Sir, There's Been A Murder]]. The later evolved out of an initial idea by [[The Dynamic Duo]] and a concept by [[Jacob Boyle]] and became the world's first live interactive drama. Together with his co-producer and co-director [[Stephanie Shires|Steph]], he assembled cast and crew and spent the last weeks of the term plus an additional December week figuring out how to broadcast the production from Steph's house. He was mainly in charge of figuring out camera positions, the movement of cast and crew around the set and directing actors. During the actual live show, Thomas worked as vision engineer (which was necessary, because they had too many video inputs to vision mix).[[File:MarioTom.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Thomas as Mario at ''Drunk Drivers'']]

His second pet project for the term was the second episode of [[YSTV does Hunted]]. Together with former contestant [[Andrew Waddle]], Thomas planned on taking the concept by [[Edwin Barnes]] and expanding it massively by introducing three additional teams and running the game for longer. YSTV seemed to love the idea, and a large crew of both old and new members ended up getting involved. The show was ultimately shot during a November Saturday and then went straight into [[edit hell]]. [[File:ThomasEditsHunted|300px|thumb|left|Thomas editing ''Hunted'' during a social]]

Around this time during winter 2019/20, Thomas established a new recurring live programme with [[Boozy Broadcasts]]. This live studio show featured a bunch of drunk YSTV members coming together after the weekly meeting in the [[YSTV studio]] to participate in different games or competitions. The most notable instalment of this new series was ''Drunk Drivers''; an epic Mario Kart tournament in which most of the station's members participated. All in costume, of course.
