Steve Fletcher tackles a pocket watch that spent four years in a World War II Japanese internment camp undetected and Suzie Fletcher restores a trunk made by Louis Vuitton.
In this episode, Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.
Resident clock maker Steve Fletcher tackles a pocket watch that has come all the way from Holland and which spent four years in a World War II Japanese internment camp, remaining undetected by being secretly sewn in to the hem of a dress. Metal worker Dominic Chinea and master cooper Alastair Simms get an ancient butter churn turning, and churning, once again. And leather expert Suzie Fletcher lovingly restores a trunk made by Louis Vuitton, which is showing the signs of the years it spent travelling the world with the owner's great grandfather.
