Only on week 2 but Liv, Stephen and Jonathan may struggle to get much further as the standard is high.

Lovely programme all round.

Just watched on Catch up... Love it and this bunch are going to be good. The chap that won, his was fabulous I would but that Salad bowl.

Loved the winning set. I would happily use that - especially outdoors at lunch time in the summer.

I thought the salad set challenge was a bit ambitious for week 1 but goodness, they were all very good.

Even the not so good were still very good if you get what I mean.

Princess has lovely outgoing, cheery personality which adds to the charm of the programme. Let's hope they don't take it down the Bake Off or Sewing Bee route and start introducing comedy stunts and dressing up parties. hmm

James really was a cut above the others. If he continues like last night he’ll be a clear winner. But as we know all can change!

Has Princess not replaced Rose?🤔

My mistake. I knew it began with a P. grin

What talent was shown in the first week! The potter of the week was well deserved and the decision as to who was going home I completely agree with. They all seem such a nice bunch

Thank goodness. I love this programme and admire the many talents these amateur potters show. Rich and Keith are back as judges with Siobhan as an ideal presenter for this programme. The only change is Ruth who is no longer in the drying room. Her job has been taken over by Precious who was a contestant in the last series.
If tonight's salad sets were anything to go by, we are in for a treat.
