Alan Titchmarsh presents a six-part series exploring the UK's amateur arts scene. Who is singing, playing or making what?
And what drives people to invest so much time and energy without financial reward? In Derry, he finds out about the Irish dance craze of set dancing, in Oxford he meets a group of visually impaired potters, and in Birmingham he hears the Aberdeen Street
Gospel Choir.
