5/20 Fujiko Rose apparently won a Landscape series I haven't got to seeing yet. Her show focused on use of inks rather than paints, working on a B&W photo of some hillside with a big branch framing it.
6/20 Gareth Reid was a former Portrait winner, and he used charcoals to render a B&W pic of some old bloke's face. Very competently, too.

7/20 Former Portrait winner Wendy Barrett looks at Painting with a Limited Palette; just 3 colours (one of which is white).
8/20 Portrait semi-finalist Phoebe Hicks looks at Animal Portraiture, with the lovely Jago.

5.1 Back already, with Smeaton's Tower at Plymouth being a focal point. Much talk about Plymouth Sound, which begs the technical question of what makes a Bay a bay and a sound a sound. Anyway, a linocut lady won for a change.
There's an "in memory" caption at the end, but no clue who it refers to (maybe one of the wild cards? Poor bloke was only 22).

5.2 The quirkily pretty Herstmonceux Observatory made a good choice for some very good paintings, though the weather was stormy and wet. The wild cards had it worse.

He's at it again. Here he tried pie & mash, prawn curry, some kind of rib-eye dish and finally some haute cuisine nonsense. Not all at once, mercifully. He was less pleased about rollmops.

AREF
2 - Nottingham Forest
Just the 3 films, but at least some of them, like the pizza dog, and the fried chicken option, looked worth sampling. He gave stilton the thumbs up too.

DMC - My Adoption Journey
Hip-Hop's premier glasses-wearer, Daryl McDaniels, discovered belatedly he was adopted, and even more belatedly, tried to track down his birth mother, despite official obstruction, and the fact he had her name wrong (understandable as her actual name is even rarer than the guess). In a dramatic break with tradition, he finds her alive, and she's happy to meet up with him (in 2006, this was, though).

9/20 Former Landscape winner Clare Lord gives an Introduction to Still Life, making her own composition with different coloured glass bottles and some fruit.
10/20 Another series winner Fin Campbell-Notman talks on Composition in Landscapes, which felt a bit like one of the earlier episodes.

5.3 The Millennium Bridge in Gateshead makes a good challenge, and regular judge Kate is AWOL, whilst the eventual winner comes through her heat.
