Great show

Love this show but agree with other reviewer, please go on talent, not pretty people, we watch it for the pottery. Find Sara Cox very patronising, love the experts, especially Keith

Thankyou Ellie

Thanks Ellie for your handling of this brilliant series, carefully crafted presenting !

The program itself has well chosen craftspeople, perhaps a pre-series program to see the selection process would add interest .

Looking forward to the new series .

Trivia
On Friday, 13th September 2019 Channel 4 Television announced that they have commissioned Love Productions to produce a new 10-episode series of the ceramic challenge for broadcast in 2020. Melanie Sykes has been announced as the new presenter of the Channel 4 version of the programme with returning judge Keith Brymer Jones joined by a new judge, award-winning ceramicist Sue Pryke. The announcement has echoes of Channel 4's obtaining of another Love Productions title that was originally broadcast on BBC Television - The Great British Bake Off.
