Joe Lycett hosts as the ten remaining home sewers return to the nation's most famous sewing room for gent's classics week. In a gentle first test of tailoring, judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young kick off the Pattern Challenge with a Sewing Bee first - a baker boy cap. The cap requires perfect symmetry in its construction, a supporting brim and a snug fit to get that full Peaky Blinders look.
Next, in the Transformation Challenge, they have just 90 minutes to smarten up and convert secondhand men's jackets and blazers into a garment for a woman.
Finally, for the Made to Measure challenge the sewers must make a casual utility jacket, which should have a relaxed fit and include at least three pockets. Who will make something for the perfect gent and win Garment of the Week, and who will become the third sewer to leave the Great British Sewing Bee?
