This week on the show we speak to the multi award winning BBC foriegn affairs correspondent Mike Thomson about his life as a journalist and about both the troubling and inspirational sights he has witnessed while offering his advice to students here at The University of York as to how to pursue a journaistic career. We also speak to the writer and director of the week 3 Dramabarn production, Quaisar Siddique, and take a sneak peak at the futuristic, isolationist vision his new play 'Ten Days' presents' as well as our preview of this weeks production 'Peepshow' by Isabel Wright. Our reviewers Kate Bull and Tom Bodington have been watching 'Peepshow' and Rosie Fletcher takes a look at the last ODN of the Spring Term 'Play in a Day'. If that wasn't enough we are also bringing you the best of the live sessions of last terms shows including the likes of Jahangir Aziz Hyat, Josh Savage, Luke Malkin and Laurence Hobden.

Seven little lives in one big city. Devised by Frantic Assembly and written by Isabel Wright, Peepshow gets under the brickwork of life in a tower block as two friends, four lovers and one loner expose glimpses of their urban lives to an audience of voyeurs. Can we really trust what we see through the windows or what we hear through the walls? Do we really know what goes on behind closed doors? In our preview of the production we speak to the cast and creative team behind what looks to be an exciting, engrossing and imaginative production unlike anything seen in the barn this year. The show runs from Friday to Sunday Week 2 and tickets are avaliable on the door and from 12-2 on Vanborough stalls Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Reconstructed from recordings found in the depth of the URY archives and as funny as ever the URY sketch show features everything from the new trailer for Rocky 8 to the story of migrating gueese in 15 minutes of student written hilarity!
A long time ago, in a studio not so far away... YES! This show is centred on one of Chris and Dave's greatest love! STAR WARS! Pretty much every thing on the show is sci-fi based expect a little phone call from the University of Central Lancaster's radio station, Frequency, calling for a little chat about what they did for comic relief!
We have a true celebrity on the show this week in the form of Coach Trip winner Rob Short who is joined by his best friend and confidant Chris McLeod. Also the show is tool themed to allow Chris and Dave to vent their suppressed loathing of each other into a reasonably acceptable environment.
Facebook has become an incredibly important part of our lives and most of us use the site on a daily basis. But how dependent are we on it? URY's national award winning Coco Cole spends a week without facebook for this orginal documentary. Presented by Coco Cole and produced for URY by Nick Duquemin
