==Chaos==
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.
