This was not a programme or a short spoof. Sometime circa 1992/3, a number of techies were fixing things in [[P/X/002]] on a Wednesday afternoon, and due to lack of space in the office/workshop, Adrian took whatever he was fixing into the studio to work on it. Some bright spark switched on a camera, pointed it at Adrian, and then went live to network... | This was not a programme or a short spoof.

The caption simply says "Soldering With Adrian" and the picture shows Adrian sat at a table, soldering. A scrolling caption invites viewers to ring YSTV on 2460 (amazingly still the same internal number as today) for soldering advice. | The caption simply says "Soldering With Adrian" and the picture shows Adrian sat at a table, soldering.

This acquired somewhat legendary status during the early 2000s at YSTV and in tribute a short segment of [[Off The Cuff]] in January 2004 was dedicated to "Soldering With [[Ed Jellard| Ed]]". | This acquired somewhat legendary status during the early 2000s at YSTV and in tribute a short segment of [[Off The Cuff]] in January 2004 was dedicated to "Soldering With [[Ed Jellard|Ed]]". | ||

''Soldering with'''s third incarnation appeared in 2013 as '''''Soldering with Liz''''', presented by [[Elizabeth Pascoe]]. [[Mike Chislett]] foolishly agreed to provide food for Liz and Robert on [[Elections 2013|Election night]], provided this series airs. It eventually got made as an 11 minute as-live studio show, with the first episode featuring new Technical Director [[Robert Walker]] and titled "Desoldering with Rob", taped when Liz, Robert and [[Christopher Parker]] were all in the station bored one evening in June 2013. It was broadcast between live episodes of [[Challenge Us To Talk]] and [[The Ultimate Challenge]] on 10 June. After too many drinks in V-Bar, a second episode was recorded on 17 June featuring [[Lucy Walters]] being taught to solder. This may be the start of an actual serial programme, an example of taking the joke too far. Many people haven't spotted that the show is a spoof. | |||
