The Repair Shop
Overview
Gramophone expert Tim Weeks brings back many happy childhood memories when he repairs an early Edison model phonograph that has been silent for years. A treasured heirloom passed down from his aunt, the owner is delighted to hear it play music once more. Metal expert Brenton West restores a century-old silver mirror that has been passed down the female line of the owner's family. Replacing a broken corner of the mirror, he makes it fit for use for another hundred years. Meanwhile, leather expert Suzie Fletcher lovingly repairs a broken handle and restores the leather on a writing case formerly owned by pioneering locomotive engineer Robert Stephenson, a hero of the owner.
