Great pottery throwdown 2025

[AlicePottery]

Anyone watching?

Evening all, I've already forgotten what this week's theme is 😅

Sorry I'm not going to be of any use as I've forgotten too 🤦‍♀️

Evening still

All

Oh yes, I remember now, still not convinced.

Someone on Instagram was suggesting Keith was one of the Masked Singers (Kingfisher maybe, I missed it).

I HATE coil building, I've made the grand total of one piece using coils. It lives in the cupboard under the stairs, banished like an embarrassing secret nephew.

And they just said Bear!

It's not him, though.

He was in a punk band at done point wasn't he?

Keith is an old mod so a punk band seems unlikely but I wouldn't rule it out!

The space ark is not very child friendly!

I like Diana!

The Afghan Wigs?

Anyone ever played with a pottery Noah’s Ark as a child? It doesn’t seem very child friendly to me. Although I did play with my grandparents’ pottery ornaments, so maybe it’s not so Out There as a concept.

Yup punk band The Wigs

I stand corrected! I really thought he was a mod!

@Saucery that's why it's a terrible challenge, not remotely suitable as a toy.

“Animal pairs full of personality” V “GET DOWN FROM THERE, DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH THAT ARK!!!!!”

Some of these look very busy and not particularly harmonious.

I'm trying to think what animals you'd make for ease. Snakes. Snails. Octopus. Amoeba flat fish

Deffo an ex Punk.

Lead singer in The Wigs (no, I’ve never heard of them either).

Oooh fun challenge, love the demonstration. I've never tried throwing terracotta but if it's like porcelaine as Rich says then I'll be giving it a miss (it's like trying to throw Philadelphia).

I cannot match the blazer and tie combos with a punk!

Anyhow dp reckons he'd do at least 1 pair of zombies, and probably some snails.

I think I'd go with dinosaurs for the ark 😁

Here is the young Keith (with the same hair style - just with more hair):

😱😱😱

@AlicePottery thank you! Great!

Good to see Stephen smile after his ark nightmare.
