Straight TV Chrimbo card
Just before I moved up to Manchester (in 2000), I was sent this Christmas card from Barry (front, behind the banana card thing, wearing sunglasses), who was co-exec producer at Straight TV, the indie production company I worked for up there.
Strangely it was addressed to "Helen". Odd, but there you go - these creative types are unpredictable. I wonder if Helen got a card addressed to "Steve"?
I've added some notes to this photo on Flickr (which you can see if you click on the photo above), mostly naming people that I can remember (quite a few of these people weren't there by the time I arrived).

Have you got the card from the following year, where, with the help of state of the art computer technology we were composited into a biblical scene ?
Sadly, no. I do recall that there was also an electronic version of the same photo online which put names to faces. I remember adding a javascript "snowflake" effect to snazzy it up for Chrimbo.
