The grand final sees presenters Una Stubbs and Richard Bacon travel to Devon's picturesque south coast as the final four amateur artists battle it out to be crowned the winner.

The remaining artists face three challenges that centre around the vibrant and diverse city of Liverpool.

Richard Bacon and Una Stubbs welcome the remaining eight amateur artists to Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill.

Una Stubbs and Richard Bacon present from the prestigious Tate Britain gallery on the banks of the Thames in London - where the amateur artists will face three challenges capturing the human form.

Una and Richard bring the nine remaining artists to a converted Victorian warehouse in London's Southbank, where they tackle one of the most notoriously tricky subjects to paint - portraiture.

The competition starts in Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, where expert judges Lachlan Goudie and Daphne Todd OBE set their first challenge to see each artist's unique painting style for the first time.
