Pottery Throw Down

[Davros]

Starts this Thursday 8pm on BBC2. Will fill the Interior Design gap nicely

I loved Clover's dolls - they were beautiful. Glad Cáit has gone - she seemed nice but she just wasn't keeping up anymore.

Really enjoy loved loved Clovers work. It was the right time for Cait to go she been struggling ages. Her biggest old lady wasn't even done that well and she spend havevthe time on it. Sad about Nam as he's been much higher than a lot but his dolls looked awful.
Think Richard will go next he needs to be pushing self not play safe old stuff.

Wait, she actually went into a shop and purchased that awful smock? It looks like something you knock together in home ec class. Vaguely remember making something similar dungaree wise.

He's making a toilet with a turtle's head??

Well, tonight's is quite a challenge....

Stained glass, wok?

I prefer the weeks when they do the smaller, more intricate pottery, rather than these huge toilets. Seem more about logistics than design so far.

Another sack dress too!

The turtle is brilliant!

Loved the turtle design .

That turtle toilet was magnificent!

I'd never watched this before this evening's episode, which I caught by chance. I really enjoyed it and will have to go and watch previous episodes now!

That turtle was amazing, and I liked Clover's style too. I did have to laugh at the toilet that worked more like a fountain...

If thang turtle hadn't been a toilet I'd have been buying one. Absolutely brilliant from Ryan.

I was sad to see Freya go-overall I think she's been better than Richard but the spraying toilet was fairly unforgivable! I'm hoping Clover wins but I like Ryan too.

A bit of a turn up for the books that one.

Freya was so artistic and creative - such a shame she had to go - but they couldn't really ignore the toilet disaster.

I too would like to see Clover win it now, but Ryan is also great. Richard would have to do something truly spectacular.

Sad it's coming to an end next week. I'm going to miss it.

Ryan's turtle was brilliant, like Clovers Russian Dolls last week. i think these were the standout pieces from the whole show so either could and should win. I'd rather have seen Nam as the third find Alistair I think. Freya was very creative but just a bit all over the shop compared to the others.

Great show, i really hope they don't cancel it like the sewing bee.

Finalist!

Those Russian dolls were incredible.

The turtle toilet was fantastic.

The turtle toilet and Johnny Vegas in the same night, I'm a very happy (beginners course) potter.

It does make me laugh - Johnny Vegas doing his degree in ceramics!

Best comedy moment of the season so far tonight!

Freya was robbed! (As was Elaine some weeks back.) Richard is clunky and his designs are predictable and not that well executed. This programme really needs to decide whether the final verdict is only on the main make or whether the challenges matter at all. Because Freya's free challenge pot tonight was a million times better than Richard's clunky jug and undecorated goblets. As were her teapots!

We've been willing Richard to go sonce about week 2, I don't find him very likeable and his work is middling, which is why he always stays in, there's always someone worse. I thought Freya should have stayed, I agree her pots were way better than his.

Sad about Freya as I agree she is more creative than Richard, and when she has excelled it has been to a greater extent than him. I'm confused about the mini challenges, they don't seem to count for much!

I'm confused about the mini challenges, they don't seem to count for much!

I agree with this. The criteria are not at all clear.

I think Richard should have gone weeks ago and Elaine stayed in. I don't mind Freya going; I don't like her much and find her work rather ugly most of the time.

Ryan seriously raised his game after last week, which was impressive. The amount of thought and research he'd obviously put in to the turtle loo was incredible.

I'd be happy if he or Clover won TBH.
