The Liberty Open Call feels like a million years ago (you can see my post about it here) but I got a great reminder of all the excitement and anticipation when the first episode of Theo Paphitis’ new show was screened on BBC2 this week. The series follows designers and inventors as they pitch to major retailers with the chance of getting their product stocked. I think the buzz and atmosphere of the Liberty open day was captured brilliantly, and Theo was just great. I’m really looking forward to seeing how the stories unfold!

If you’re particularly eagle-eyed, you can just about see the top of my head in the shot on the left. You’d be forgiven for missing it – the only real giveaway is my sister, clearly visible and standing in front of me. On the right here, Richard Weston is showing his fantastic scarves to the lovely Kate and Ed. Screenshots are courtesy of BBC.
