Handmade: Britain's Best Woodworker

Mel Giedroyc returns with the carpentry contest, which sees 10 woodworking enthusiasts fight hammer and nail as they create various projects that combine epic scale with fine craftsmanship and cutting-edge design. To remain in the competition they have to impress the judges, entrepreneur and woodworking expert Sophie Sellu and design academic Tom Dyckhoff, while a series of surprise challenges keep them on their toes - and give them the chance to win a lifeline.

The carpentry enthusiasts are challenged to make a beautiful, freestanding, handcrafted clock inspired by an important time in their life. But as time ticks by, little goes to plan, and the woodworkers are tested to their limits. However, an opportunity to win immunity comes in the form of the skills challenge, where they must reproduce a bunch of realistic roses from delicate pieces of wood planed from a block of ash. Presented by Mel Giedroyc.

Mel Giedroyc welcomes the eight remaining woodworkers back, and awaiting them this time is literally child's play, as they craft a high-quality toy inspired by their own childhood. The woodworkers are tasked with carving a modern take on the traditional Welsh love spoon, but who will sweep judges Sophie Sellu and Tom Dyckhoff off their feet with their love token, and who will be dumped from the competition?

The carpentry enthusiasts are challenged to make bespoke day beds inspired by a design movement, ensuring it is strong, practical and comfortable. As ever, an opportunity to win immunity comes in the form of the skills challenge, which this week sees them burning an image onto wood.

The woodworkers create a sea-inspired sculpture from a tree trunk and turn a perfectly proportioned spinning top on a traditional pole lathe.

The woodworkers are challenged to make a stylish rocking chair with a modern twist - and with a place in the semi-final at stake, the pressure is on. As ever, there is a chance to secure immunity in the skills challenge, for which judges Tom Dyckhoff and Sophie Sellu have them building a birdbox. Presented by Mel Giedroyc.

Mel Giedroyc presents the semi-final in which the remaining four woodworkers have to build an elaborate desk on a two-day time crunch. In the skills challenge the contestants create vases out of cut-offs in a fight for that all-important immunity, but just who will grab their place in next week's final?

In the final challenge the remaining woodworkers make a home bar, dramatic, sophisticated and at least one-metre tall. In the skills test the competitors make a sign to go along with it. One will be celebrating, while the others drown their sorrows as Britain's Best Woodworker is crowned.
