Chigley - Season 1 - Eps 9: Clay For Mr Farthing
Mr Wantage and Fred finish their work in Trumpton and go off to the Chigley pottery to mend Harry Farthing's phone. There, they find that the trouble is due to clay in the receiver holder. Harry gives them a demonstration of how he makes a bowl. The PO engineers mention that a lot of clay was dug out when the new telephone exchange was built, and they give Harry a lift to the exchange in their van. They tell Harry he can have it all, but how can they transport it back to the pottery ?

Synopsis
Chigley is the third and final stop-motion children's television series in Gordon Murray's Trumptonshire sequence. Production details are identical to Camberwick Green. As in Camberwick Green and Trumpton, the action centres around a small community, in this case the fictitious village or hamlet of Chigley, near Camberwick Green in Trumptonshire. Chigley is more of an industrial area, and according to Gordon Murray, the three communities are at the corners of an equilateral triangle. A digitally restored version of the series from the rediscovered original film masters emerged in 2012.
