Episode 4
The team restores a music box damaged during the Blitz, a threadbare toy lamb and a pair of fire tongs built by the owner’s own great-grandfather.
Today in the Repair Shop, Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.
Musical box expert Stephen Kember and furniture restorer Will Kirk join forces to tackle a very special music box damaged by a bomb during the Blitz. Unfortunately the box’s owners, in the house at the time, were killed by the blast. Now their descendent, and custodian of the box, Roger wants to restore the box so he can hear the same music the family members he never knew used to listen too.
Stuffed toy restorers Amanda Middleditch and Julie Tatchell take on one of their toughest assignments yet – A stuffed toy lamb, torn apart by a real dog and now consisting of just a head and four legs.
And metalworker Brenton West restores a treasured pair of fire tongs, designed and built by the owner’s own great-grandfather, back to working order.
