In May 2005, after stopping doing the station's scheduling after two years, [[Jonathan Bufton]] wrote a [[spoof YSTV listings page]] on the [[YSTV Messageboard]]. It included a breakfast show, and a number of respondants said they'd like to do a breakfast show actually at breakfast time (unlike previous breakfast shows broadcast at more "studenty" times). | In May 2005, after stopping doing the station's scheduling after two years, [[Jonathan Bufton]] wrote a [[spoof YSTV listings page]] on the [[YSTV Messageboard]].

Also featured were weather reports "live" from Central Hall balcony with YSTV's weatherman [[Anthony Laverty]] and spoof regional news sections (complete with BBC style dodgy opt-outs) from such exotic newsrooms as Derwent Digest. | ||
The show followed the format of others such as BBC Breakfast and GMTV by following a set schedule, with certain elements repeated for those tuning in. The format decided upon had "news" features in the first fifteen minutes, followed by weather at quarter past. There was then an interview, followed by regional news. The second half hour would begin with a round-up of the headlines, followed by a paper review and highlights of [[YSTV Week]] that year - complete with weather at quarter to and more regional news at the top of the hour. An ident and title sequence would feature every thirty minutes (complete with a special James Bond-themed promo featuring shows from the last academic year, ending with the tagline "Licence To Thrill" - yes really!). | The show followed the format of others such as BBC Breakfast and GMTV by following a set schedule, with certain elements repeated for those tuning in.
