Hi,

Wonderful; at last a new series of The Great pottery Throw Down. Channel More 4 from Wednesday Jan 8 at 9pm.

The two previous series were excellent.

Kind regards, Colin.

"Enemy Within," was a pretty formulaic "terrorist hunt series" I might watch further episodes.

Didn't realise "Jett" was Carla Gugino. Now she "first came to my and many men's attention" with Nicholas Cage in "Snake Eyes," but that was in 1998 when she was 27. Although she's never been out of work and been in nearly 100 films and TV series including being a doctor and a US Marshall, she's back to her "femme fatal" character, at the age of 48. So I might not bother with more episodes. But she's worn well. I'll have to see how it goes.

I watched a bit of Silent Witness last night, hadn't for years.
I was amazed how bad it still was, like poor amateur dramatics.

Hi,

Thanks for adding the information Logan. You and I have different viewing tastes.

Last night's first episode of The Great Pottery Throw Down was excellent; it's a pity there couldn't be a joint first place but the winner well deserved it. Why stick this series out of the way on More4 though where it's easily missed?

Bron and I have visited the pottery a few years ago;

Visit Middleport Pottery - Last working Victorian pottery — Middleport Pottery — Re-form

We're currently watching Z Cars and Softly Softly on TV via YouTube.

Kind regards, Colin.

They're repeats from either BBC or probably now channel 4.

It's the same people who do the great British bake off and the sowing bee.
BBC lost the bid for them last year, channel 4 offered more money.
I did like them.

Sometime ago i watched the orangutan school where they take in young and teach them to be able to go back into the wild.

Hi,

Thanks Logan; this is an entirely new series of The Great pottery Throw Down with a new presenter so actually not a repeat which makes a change.

Keith sure gets emotional; he was soon in tears. Great show.

Kind regards, Colin.

I'm surprised that it's new for that channel, they usually do repeats from ch.4 because it's run by them.

Hi,

Thanks Logan. Yes it's strange to see the program tucked away but it has been advertised on TV otherwise we might have completely missed it. Well worth watching though.

Kind regards, Colin.
