The Great Pottery Throwdown | Series 4 Preview (Channel 4)

The battle of the clay returns with a brand-new series, as twelve of Britain's best home potters compete to become champion of the pottery.

Siobhán McSweeney hosts, as judges Keith Brymer Jones and Rich Miller set more challenges than you can throw your crockery at.

In this first episode, the potters take on a birthday tea set challenge, and a surprise second challenge that sees them making handleless milk jugs that must survive the bucket of doom.

As the battle of clay kicks off at the wheel, who will be named potter of the week and who will be first to leave the pottery?

The Great Pottery Throwdown returns Sunday 8th January on Channel 4.
