Great Pottery Throwdown

I like it, too, apart from the female presenter. She is just not funny. I really like the new judge, though.

I really enjoy this programme too but agree that the actress presenting it is superfluous and annoying. In the early episodes, I thought that Sal was a runaway winner but the Welsh woman has certainly upped her game. Roll on next week.

Yes - presenter is surplus to requirements for sure.

Anyone remember Deirdre Barlows (corri) ash tray??
And possibly a tea pot that leaked??

I remember them. Deirdre thought they were the Crown Jewels. I also watched The Good Life when Barbara (Felicity Kendal) came home from her pottery class with a couple of very rustic looking mugs.

I haven't been able to watch this series after trying the first 1.5 programmes, because of the presenter. She is loud and unfunny and very irritating. Just can't watch it.

Oh no! I won't say who went tonight but really? I'm having a stompy tantrum. I understand why they went but. .

That was a shock wasn’t it ?

I don’t like the presenter either bu5 it would t stop me watching missing

I really liked Adams work tonight Hes quiet and not a drama Queen just plods on but does some lovely stuff

Yes, I have thought that about Adam for a few weeks now. His work is beautiful.

Oh no, what a shock, I thought X was an amazing potter but I suppose sticking to the brief is important. The other was not so much of a shock and I thought should have gone earlier .

Noooooo! How could they get sack the best potter? I do find that in this type of show the most obviously talented people get the chop and some plodder gets the accolade. I hope it’s not going to be Adam. I find him annoyingly smug.

Bit cryptic but I don’t think they did get rid of the best potter, and I don’t think it’s Adam. Who are we keeping the secret from?

She definitely shouldn't have gone, what a shock, but as she said herself, 'I should have stuck to the brief '

Of course she was the best potter. How can you win one section and get chucked out? Unbelievable!

Casdon we’re keeping the secret from anyone who is going to watch this week’s episode on catch-up. Never heard of spoilers?

Thank you, much appreciated (tho' I know now it's female?)

trisher exactly the same thing happened to Henry last week?

tidyskatemum I have heard of spoilers, but we didn’t do that in previous weeks on this thread, unless you just mean keep it secret just for an hour until 10 - of course that’s fine, I just hadn’t realised?

But Henry's water feature was a disaster! X's pots were not

Actually I think anyone who hasn’t watched it should not read this thread I always think it’s a bit tiptoeing to complain about spoilers it’s up to them not to be peeping If I see a headline of a programme I haven’t yet watched I wouldn’t read it as there’s obviously going to be spoilers
I don’t find Adam at all smug I think he’s very talented and actually not an attention seeker like some tidy quite underrated in my opinion I don’t really rate Peters work that much although he did well tonight
The point was both who left did not stick to the script they added their own bits and pieces which got them the push

I was shocked by the judges' decision tonight. How could they!

Ooh! - Mystery - I'm just watching now - my type of reality show.

Only one person should have gone. I was shouting at the tele. The best potter (I think you all know who I mean). Should not have gone.

I won't bother watching any more. The whole thing is a contrived set up.

Like Bake Off.

Agree last night's result was a shock. There had been no mention of the possibility of a double departure!

Didn’t you know that before you started watching merlotgran ALL the programmes are set ups even the ones where people seem spontaneously funny is all practiced beforehand I m sure they know the winner before it starts !! Or am I being an old sceptic

Maybe just a bit Blubelle. I didn’t agree with the decision last night, but you could see the logic behind it, as both the pots were good, but they hadn’t followed the brief, I think it was the first time that had happened. I guess that’s a capital offence which was why they both had to go.
