Anecdotes
In a May 2020 interview with Tiswas Online, John Gorman explained that Saturday Stayback was borne out of restrictions placed on OTT (1982) by ITV.

With the title "OTT" banned and all the scripts requiring vetting, Chris Tarrant rejected doing a second series, and went ahead with Stayback as a replacement project. Gorman stated that Stayback was "Good, but it lacked that attack that we'd had with OTT."

Pre-Recorded OTT

Great opening credits sung by Roy Wood showing people trying to get into a pub. I personally did not think it was as good as OTT. Not live and pre - recorded in a different pub each week, varying members of the cast hung around the bar doing different sketches. It had its merits with bands like Thin Lizzy, Chas and Dave and Rocky Sharpe and the replays, playing in a small pub and Jim Bowen telling jokes. This is probably what OTT would have been if it wasn't live, and this is what I think let it down. Stayback was centered more on the adult late night show, it could be argued that OTT was more an adult version of Tiswas, as the custard pie element was still there and the anarchy of Tiswas. Chris once said in a Tiswas magazine that Tiswas would not work if it was pre-recorded and I don't think OTT would have lasted 13 episodes if it had been, and this is what I think led to the demise of Stayback.
