The heat is on – literally – in this week’s semi-final of The Great Pottery Throw Down. The four remaining potters face a fiery challenge: crafting Hellmouth fireplaces, intricate designs that demand both technical skill and artistic flair. As if that weren’t enough, guest judge Jon Plant from Moorland Pottery throws a curveball with a surprise second challenge, guaranteed to push these semi-finalists to their limits.
With the final looming, the pressure is immense. One wrong move, one poorly executed glaze, and their dreams of pottery glory could go up in smoke. Host Siobhán McSweeney presides over the controlled chaos, while judges Keith Brymer Jones and Rich Miller cast their discerning eyes over the creations. Who will crack under the pressure, and who will rise from the ashes to claim a spot in the final?
