The first act was Stewart Crank, on vocals and guitar, who played a range of songs including 'With a Little Help From My Friends' by the Beatles. Next was Thea Maxwell, playing her own songs, also on vocals and guitar. Finally, BNOC and YUSU President Kallum Taylor and guitarist Robert Grout played a medley of songs which they'd composed earlier that day, all inspired by popular York club, 'The Willow', and including the memorable refrain: 'I'm a mother-loving B-N-O-C!'. | The first act was Stewart Crank, on vocals and guitar, who played a range of songs including 'With a Little Help From My Friends' by the Beatles.

Chris Wall performed a magic act, using his mind-reading abilities and card skills to bamboozle the presenters, before being interviewed about his magic. Helen and Chris also appeared earlier in the show, to discuss Children in Need and the experience of living encased within a onesie. This led Chris to tell an alarming story involving vodka and a little girl in a queue. | Chris Wall performed a magic act, using his mind-reading abilities and card skills to bamboozle the presenters, before being interviewed about his magic.

- ''Pudsey 007'': The first VT showed Pudsey arriving from the bus at library bridge, and making his way across campus, James Bond style. Filmed and produced by Helen and Charlotte Bennington, using original music composed by [[Rob Drane]]. | |||
- ''Mr & Mrs Pudsey'': This rather soppy video showed Chris and Helen mucking around in their Pudsey onesies, including shopping for honey in Costcutter, dancing atop Central Hall and playing a terrible game of tennis - beautifully filmed by [[Tim Copeland]]. | |||
- ''BrassNeck Sax Quartet'': A music performance by Grace's quartet - Soprano: Katie Wood, Alto: Grace Winpenny, Tenor: Sam Johnson, Baritone: Nick Jones. | |||
