- While exploring the importance of green stained glass throughout history you get to follow three trainees when they learn the foundations of the craft - from how to cut glass incredibly accurately, to leading up and glazing a window.
What a great series. The glass blowing and flattening process stole my heart. What an incredible craftsman skill to have. Thanks for sharing this.
The artist in you can easily get in the way of learning and repeating the actual technique of the artisans craft.
As a Stone mason / Sculptor of over 30 years, i know through experience that it takes time and patience to reach the point of professionalism, where your personal feelings don't get in the way of " doing the job ".
3:10 - Seeing saints, with slightly _paned_ expressions... 😆
i worked in stained glass in Mobile Alabama for 5 years. we did most things the way they do, but we had band saws. and grinders to help get the curves exactly right. i would hate to have only a glass cutter and one shot to get it right. that is tooooo hard!!! we did lots of local churches in a sort of assembly line process. then, i worked for a lady who was more of an artist. but we had new tools that made cutting easier.
These are great series, The English make great shows, IMHO.
I also have played around with stained glass, and if I could be so bold to give one critique...it would be that they should how the glass is made, not just the blowing and flattening, but I was hoping for how the color is put into it.
But it is a great series, and like them all, love how they make it almost personal, it strikes on ones emotions and character.
Bravo!
What a series. And Sophie, how impressive indeed!
I saw the blacksmithing one. I never even knew it was a series. Well, the sun has just come up and I've skipped a nights sleep to reset my sleeping pattern. I have a shit load of energy drinmks, and all I need is something to watch...binge time
+Ash Scott You back to the irregular sleep pattern yet?
If anyone knows the end title music, love to know?!
I do love this series! The only part missing is the fine art of surgeons - brain-surgery in seven days - can they master it after a week of practise? I bet they could.
Am trusting that you think you are being funny.
Now did Abigail obtain the rights to use the poem in her work? She didn’t even attribute it with the poet’s name.
So your glass is resident in that white space is it then Sophie?
Glad to see the customary cup of splosh on the bench.
Hone in on the areas of their weakness... that's the stuff Sophie. Make a workplace bully of you yet. 😉
Should have been able to get a tear from Val at least..tsk tsk or was that edited out for being to brutal?
@@MrPaddlingthenet Further proot that expertise and even being a mastercraftsman do not necessarily mean you'll be a good teacher.

hhmmmm Nery interesting :)
James looks like he's never done commission work before. Try telling a client that playing around with stuff is more important than a finished piece.
Where is this school please
I live in to México beatiful tecnic
I will spoil it for EVRYONE ....James didnt win ...lol :)
The look on his face was priceless.
I’m disappointed they didn’t cover enamelling - using simply the coloured glass TO ME just feels ‘crafty’ and not really fully completed.
Yes - it was brought up, but not covered as an official part of the whole program of this.
BOOOOO
HISSSSSS
Honest that older lady moaning about everything constantly was utter torture, people like her should be sentenced to 1 million years on job seekers allowance and her work coach is Donald Trump who naturally is the best at everything.
Love this series except this one was boooring. The only part I liked was the medieval churches are so beautiful both the architecture and the stained glass. Amazing how they could make buildings that beautiful hundreds of years ago. Architecture now doesn't come close. It's all so blah and boring. The modern stain glass is ugly and boring too.
UGH!
They’re not ‘windows’
They’re ‘panes’ or ‘panels’
Golly Gee Whillackers, being worldly-intelligenter than everyone else is so frustrating!

"Reflect 'Diversity' in stained glass." Is this one of those schools that teaches Feminist Dance Theory?
Teacher: What kind of art do you want to make?
Student: Well, I thought about something timeless, which represents universal values, maybe victory of Good versus Evil. Maybe a knight slaying a dragon.
Teacher: Sorry, but that kind of art doesn't allign with our political ideology. We want to send a message about diversity to kids, so make sure they don't have to use their imagination and brain to get it.
Student: OK, let's tell them in words what they are supposed to think. That way we don't have to make our ideology subtile.
Teacher: Welcome to the Labour Party!
