Delighted that this show is back soon. Something to look forward to grin

I was never that keen on Claudia, she knew no more about sewing than Joe.

If you didn’t have a presenter, it would be a bit flat though.
Patrick or Esme would have to present as well as judge, you need someone to keep things flowing or it would be a bit like a sewing class.

No doubting Claire was the most accurate, careful worker. I wouldn't have thought she would give up being a consultant in lung cancer for sewing. To get there takes work, study and determination, I should imagine.

(There are always so many smokers outside the gates of the QA hospital, in Portsmouth, that they must keep her busy.....sorry.)

Glad Claire won, she was consistent.
Matts dress was brilliant but definitely easier without bust darts.
Esme and Patrick have been very bland in previous series and Joe has certainly bought out a little fun in them. I quite like him.
Look forward to another series.

ginny My sentiments exactly. The best person won. I hope that they do another series. Would also like another series of the Pottery Throwdown.

I very much like the way in which the contestants in both series are supportive - no bitchiness, or trying to upstate the others.
