Our Welsh Chapel
Dream

Master potter Keith Brymer Jones has been gracing the nations screens since 2015 as a Judge on Channel 4’s The Great Pottery Throw Down and partner Marj Hogarth is a seasoned actor and textile designer. Together they plan to move wholesale to Wales, turning their 19th century grade II listed chapel into a home and working pottery studio, while keeping the main chapel hall as an event space to retain this local landmark at the heart of the community

This four-part series showcases the highs and lows that come with buying an historic building and making it into their forever home. There is planning permission to overcome, pews to be removed, rot to be ripped out and a community to be won over. We are with Keith and Marj every step of the way in their new life chapter, as they try to overcome an infestation of pigeons, attempt to learn the Welsh language, be accepted by the local community and tackle the ever-growing wood eating fungus that has flourished in the 14 years the chapel was left empty
