When is Good With Wood on TV?

Channel 4 has not yet announced a premiere date for the new hobby competition, but we'll keep this page updated as and when the news breaks which – touch-wood – will be soon.

What is Good With Wood?

Channel 4's Good With Wood is a new competition series, which sees a group of woodworkers go head-to-head on ambitious carpentry projects.

Filmed in a stunning woodland setting, each episode centres around a 'Big Build', in which the contestants are challenged to create "large and imaginative wooden structures" for the show's expert judges to examine.

After various competitive rounds, the competing carpenters will be whittled down until only one remains.

Who presents Good With Wood?

Good With Wood will be presented by comedian Mel Giedroyc, who previously hosted The Great British Bake Off with her comedy partner Sue Perkins.

She recently starred alongside Perkins in Sky 1 comedy-drama Hitmen, and in the past, has presented BBC One's The Generation Game, Let It shine and various Eurovision TV events.

“In the words of Ian Faith, the manager of Spinal Tap, ‘... in the topsy-turvy world of heavy rock, having a good solid piece of wood in your hand is often useful.’ I would add to that by saying that in the topsy-turvy world of 2020 IN GENERAL, having a good solid piece of wood in your hand is pretty much ESSENTIAL," Giedroyc said in a statement.

"So, if you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise. Good With Wood is going to be something we can all lean on. I can’t wait to make like Edward Woodward and get WOODSWARD.”
