Make It at Market
Season 1 Episode 12 of 15
Dom Chinea gives glass-blower Mark from north Wales and potter Victor from London the opportunity to turn their hobbies into money-making businesses. After being exposed to lead poisoning as a child Mark gave up his hobby of glass-blowing and spent 35 years working in the voluntary sector but when we was made redundant, Mark put his savings into setting up his own studio and getting back into glass-blowing. Victor was introduced to pottery by an art therapist during treatment for his anxiety. His clay sculptures have artistic flair but when he adds flourishes to his tableware it takes too long to make them profitable. The pair have two months to prove they have the skill and ambition to make it at market
Make It at Market airs on U&Yesterday at 7:10 AM, Monday 25 November. (Subtitles.)
