Tony uses tubes of heat-expanding paint with nozzles on them, to "pipe" a picture of flowers and leaves onto some fabric. Once the paint is dry, he uses a low-temperature iron to heat the back of the fabric, causing the paint to expand. He uses the same process to make a picture of a cat.

Margot makes a pinball machine, using paper, card, mapping pins and an elastic band.

Tony plays some animated computer graphics, which were created using MacPaint on an Apple Macintosh 128K computer.

Tony uses marker ink and pastels to make a picture of a smoky city skyline with a chimney sweep.

Finally, Tony and Margot use drinking straws to blow ink across a sheet of paper, creating a picture of trees in winter.

First broadcast in 1986.

(Plus a short bonus clip of Andy Crane and Phillip Schofield!)
