| First time doing a non-test livestream, disliked having to get an IP from ITS. Found the reason why the graphics PC wasn't working because the RAM had popped out during transit, involved scampering back to the studio from D-bar and getting a screwdriver.

| Was awake for over 24 hours. Rebuilt OB2, making it utilise the VideoHub. Had issues with a HDMI patch panel. Stopped the villainous [[Andrew Waddle]] once again from fiddling with OB2's VideoHub patching. Found out that graphics had to be played on the DSK. Many thanks to [[Sophie Bolwell-Davies]], and her tech help/expertise.
