In each episode, a group of amateur potters compete to complete two pottery challenges. In the "main make" challenge, contestants undertake a substantial multi-stage creative task: subject to given specifications, they must design a ceramic creation, build it from raw clay, and decorate it; the finished products are fired in the kiln and presented to the judges for evaluation. In between stages of the main make, potters are given a "second challenge", a smaller-scale task testing a specific pottery skill, on which they are ranked from worst to best by the judges. At the end of each episode, the judges designate the best-performing contestant as "potter of the week". The contestant with the worst results is dismissed, and all others return for the following episode; the winner of the final episode is the overall winner of the series.
Broadcast history
For the first two seasons, the presenter was Sara Cox and the expert judges were Kate Malone and Keith Brymer Jones.[1][2] Also appearing in the first three series was "kiln man Rich", Richard Miller, who acted as the show's behind-the-scenes technician.[3]
After being cancelled by the BBC in 2018, the show returned in January 2020 with a third series on Channel 4's More4, with Brymer Jones continuing as a judge, new co-judge Sue Pryke, and Melanie Sykes as new host.[4][5][6] A fourth series started on Channel 4 in January 2021 with Brymer Jones returning along with new host Siobhán McSweeney and Richard Miller stepping up to become a judge;[7] Miller was replaced as kiln technician by Rose Schmits.[8]
In July 2020, HBO Max secured the rights to distribute the show in the United States, where it premiered on 17 September 2020.[9]
In December 2021 it was announced a fifth series would begin airing in January 2022, with Keith Brymer Jones and Richard Miller returning as judges, and comedian Ellie Taylor joining Siobhán McSweeney as a host. The show's first Christmas special aired on 26 December 2022 and starred Jenny Eclair, James Fleet, Jamie Laing and Sunetra Sarker as contestants. [10]
In 2021 the series returned to the main Channel 4 network, on Sunday evenings. Broadcasts started on January 10, with Keith Brymer returning as a judge, and with Rich Miller moving from running the kilns to become the second judge.[11] Siobhan McSweeney joined the series as the main presenter.[12]Rose Schmits took over running the kilns.[13]
[a] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, filming ceased for 7 days to ensure the safety of the potters and crew. As a result, the judges decided not to eliminate anyone.
