Great Pottery Throwdown

Yes, Sarnia it is always dangerous to stray from the brief. His punchbowl and cups were lovely though, and the ladle.

I have really enjoyed this series. Keith, so passionate about pottery and Rich are lovely judges and Siobhan has been a breath of fresh air as a presenter who doesn't look like an anorexic stick insect. I was a bit concerned for Adam, deciding to go a little off the brief with the US style of Art Deco using pastel shades. All the potters did well but Jodie was a worthy winner with a beautiful set. I have found these programmes an oasis of calm in a sometimes crazy world.

I agree Ilovecheese but I think even Peter was starting to be a little embarrassed by it. I like that KBJ gets emotional about his art and when people do well - the equivalent of the Hollywood handshake on Bake Off. I have really enjoyed this series especially now that Richard is co-presenter. Is it really weird to already be looking forward to the raku challenge in next year's series? Always my favourite week.

Yes, agree Jodie was a worthy winner. Also liked Adam's way of hanging the cups.
Maybe Keith's gushing over Peter was because he had improved so much during the series, encouraging other people to push themselves harder and set themselves more challenges.

Jodie was consistent throughout and I thought her a worth winner. Those handbag decanters were inspired. Always calm, I bet she'd brilliant at her day job. I felt Keith was rather unfair to her in the semis saying her dragonfly wash pedestal was playing safe. I was also starting to find his gushing over Peter, nice man that he was, a little embarrassing.

Yes, the right person won. I loved her wolf fountain. Everything so carefully constructed and decorated. A talented artist.
I shall miss this programme, I always do when it finishes.

I thought the way Adam had his cups hanging was very clever but his bottles really let him down. Jodie was the right winner.

And his decanters were crazy!
I am pleased Jodie won. They couldn’t find any fault with her arty set.

I was interested that Lee moved to be close to Sal? Just human curiosity! I was pleased Jody one. I think Adam was a lovely person .but really he should have learnt from Sal and the other chap that sticking to the brief is imperative. His work was great but not colourful enough

Worthy winner. Jodie’s party set was fabulous. Interesting she’s back working as a nurse when everyone else seems to be continuing with pottery.
True dedication, hope she gets back in to pottery soon.

Me too. Brilliant series. I love the end bit showing what they are all up to! Lovely to see that Lee moved to Cornwall to be closer to Sue

I too am pleased that Jodie won. Her punch bowl, cups and decanters were fabulous.
Loved this series, what will I watch next week?

I’ve thought from the beginning that she would win, she was the most consistent throughout. They were a very good bunch this year though weren’t they, some beautiful creations.

Well that was good the right person won I think, well on tonight s competition that is

Easy decision for the judges last night. I was pleased to see Adam finally get Potter of the Week as he has come close quite a few times. Art Deco for the final, a la Clarice Cliff. That might suit Adam and Jodie more than Peter. I shall miss this when it finishes next week.

I do agree that Adam was a clear winner last night. The basin was beautiful and the base really lovely, my only small criticism would be that they looked like two different pieces, a little bit of shell at the top of the mermaid tail or a little of the mermaid tail running in to the basin would have seemed more of a complete piece.
I really wasn’t keen on the suitcase idea although it was well executed on the whole.
I think Jody did play safe but got away with it, her back tattoo photo was lovely although I’m not a tattoo fan.
Poor Hannah, the disaster in the kiln threw her but she did her best to pull it back. I particularly liked her chamber pot and didn’t agree that it was under decorated, but I’m no expert.
I do love the programme, it’s sad that it’s coming to a close so soon. Like a good book, you want to know how it ends but are sad when it’s finished.

Adams's sink was beautiful but very impractical and hard to clean. He deserved to win potter of the week of course.

Artistic rather than useful maybe.

Although Peter has improved I don’t think he has as much talent as the other two He’s done well I liked his suitcase idea but I think it looked better on paper it was overly heavy and chunky looking for my taste

Good decision

Happy that Adam won. Loved this chamber pot. Think he might win.

Really liked Peter's suitcases. Brilliant idea.

So sad to see one go each week. Keith and Rich are excellent with their feedback.

I felt for Hannah, her kiln disaster meant she knew she was in trouble. The judges were very complimentary about her decorating skills though.

The right person went home this week. I liked Adam's basin and Peter has improved so much over the series. I can't pick a winner.

I thought Peter's was heavy looking. It didn't do it for me. I liked Adam's.

I did like Peter’s, although his chamber pot was not good. I think it was the right decision for the weakest overall.

Loved Adams basin the colours on the pedestal are beautiful
Keith raved about peters but I didn’t like it at all
