	The show ended in chaos as all of the crew assembled on the "pie set" to apparently use all the remaining shaving foam to pie themselves (around a dozen pies). However the two main presenters Jonathan and Ed hadn't been told that all the pies were going to be aimed at them. Chaos ensued as they were caked in shaving foam and no-one was in any state to wrap up the programme. The only remaining crew member in the control room, [[Dave Baker]], cut the output to BBC1 whilst everyone cleaned up (although in the actual close of the programme he received his fair share of the foam). A clip of this incident was included in the title sequences of both the 2004 and 2005 programmes.

	Despite the somewhat hurried production and improvised nature of the show it was a lot of fun to do, and the bucket-shakers raised over £100. The success of this show re-established Children In Need as a regular annual event on YSTV.

	The final element of the show was custard pieing. It was thought that including this would add an element of fun to the programme and attract attention in the bars. An early idea was to pre-record the custard pie-ing of sabbatical officers and YUSU types, however despite enthusiasm by some to take part the usual university red tape meant that anything like this would have to be classed as an "event" and go through the usual time-consuming chanels. Consequently all pieing would be done in the studio. A fairly basic set of [[black drapes]] and stools was made in the corner of the studio oppostite the broom cupboard, and most YSTV regulars were pied at some point in the night (as well as two random blokes from Derwent bar who turned up after being encouraged by bucket-shakers to come along). In order to avoid the shaving foam, people would have to answer three questions - the first two being deceptively easy and the final something like "[[Peter Bowles\|name's YSTV's station director from 2000 to 2001]]". The custard pie element was retained all subsequent [[Children In Need]] programmes.		The final element of the show was custard pieing.

	In 2003 it was decided to revive YSTV's traditional fundraising show accompanying the BBC's appeal being broadcast at the same time. This was partly because new original productions were desperately needed on the station, and partly because it was felt that this was the sort of programme YSTV should be doing. The show was nominally produced by [[Jonathan Bufton]] but as with most things that term it was overall a group effort from the [[Gang of Four]].

	On the night before the main programme, a number of short pre-records were made from the [[YSTV Week]] desk.

URY's [[James Gallagher]] also recorded a short segment involving custard pies as he was unable to attent Friday's show. A number of "x-rated" versions were also recorded, and only saw the light of day in [[YSTV's Bloomers]] in June 2005, along with other material from this "session" where [[Ed Jellard]] had a particularly OTT reaction to the shaving foam used.

			==The Night==
	On the night the programme was broadcast from 7pm for four hours. Usually two presenters hosted from the broom cupboard, and would be able to play music videos in order to fill time when there was nothing else to do. They were able to monitor BBC1's programme and cut to it when something interesting was happening - such as a Doctor Who/Weakest Link parody and Shane Richie performing that year's Children In Need single "I'm Your Man" (well, I say interesting...). The broom cupboard was decorated with posters and graphics from that year's fundraising pack.		On the night the programme was broadcast from 7pm for four hours.

In 2003 it was decided to revive YSTV's traditional fundraising show accompanying the BBC's appeal being broadcast at the same time. This was partly because new original productions were desperately needed on the station, and partly because it was felt that this was the sort of programme YSTV should be doing.

The previous programme was made in 1999. Production paperwork indicates that a programme was planned for 2000 but not proceeded with.
