BBC Painting

Tomorrow sees the start of BBC One's The Big Painting Challenge, hosted by Richard Bacon and ex-Dougie Squires dancer Una Stubbs, last seen as Sherlock's landlady. The aim is to find Britain's best amateur artist. Episode 1/6 is Landscapes at 6pm. The 10 competitors are taken to Alnwick Castle, Northumberland, better known to Harry Potter fans as Hogwarts, where they are set various challenges and one will be eliminated (CLICK). It promises to be tripe, but worth a look. I'm curious to know how it starts with only 10 competitors. There is also The Little Painting Challenge (post card size). If you wish to enter, look for a pre-printed card at your local library.
