The Great Pottery Throwdown...had me blubbing this morning when I watched the final. What damned fine people

Still to watch the final...love Keith and how emotional he gets...a great little programme. Unusually for this sort of competition I like all the finalists and don't really have a favourite...they are all great each in their own way. I will be catching the Final this evening - so not even the slightest hint pleaseThe Great Pottery Throwdown...had me blubbing this morning when I watched the final. What damned fine people

First time ever for me too that I really didn't mind who won as they were all so lovely. To be fair the same could be said about all the contestants I think. I binge watched the first series and there were the usual slightly too competitive ones that I took a "dislike" to but was delighted at the final winner on that occasion. Amazing how immersed I can get in it and invested in the "competitors".

Yes - I've enjoyed them all - and looking back on those who have gone I thought that Sally's building was just beautiful, amazing - especially when the workshop lights were dimmed and her building interior light switched on...

I was shocked when Sal was kicked out but "stick to the brief"!

It was still a wrong decision. She tweaked the brief, no more. She was also the best potter on the show by some distance, imo.

It was weird - just the lip on the bowl I think...harsh for sure.

Having a new desk arrive (flat pack of course) - and somehow managing to assemble it in 20 minutes - and it is still standing. And I only needed one beer to get me through it.

I wish. Both to look like her and have him at such close quarters!! Always so sad to think he died so young.

I remember listing to a review of that film and someone commenting that she was just practising how she put her make-up on in the morning
Found out today that my Aunt received a letter from Boris today.
Thanking my uncle for his services provided to the NHS during covid before he passed.
Whilst I know its only a typed letter, he's stil signed it in person and they've references my uncle by his nick name, so someone has at least asked about him.

Sal was just too ‘lippy’ that week.

I was really surprised at the time too, she was the best potter I think, but Keith was pretty peeved that she had gone off brief!
Like others I would have been happy for any of the finalists to win but (no spoilers) I was especially happy for the winner.

Still no spoilers but didn't think there was much doubt about who produced the best set in the final. So envious of their skills and so going to try it when I can!
