Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.\n\nStringed instrument restorer Julyan Wallis sets to work on a beloved banjo. The banjo belonged to Kipper Tranter’s dear departed friend, Ted. Many years ago, Ted took a young and wayward Kipper under his wing, for which Kipper is eternally grateful. The friends shared a love of bluegrass music and would regularly play together. When Ted passed away, he wanted his beloved banjo to go to Kipper. The 80-year-old instrument is not in great shape and Kipper would love it repaired, so that it can be passed onto another generation of musical talent. \n\nThe workshop’s next arrival is Julia Emmett from Berkshire, with a pair of vintage rollerskates for leather gal Suzie Fletcher. The 1930s skates belonged to her father, who was quite something back in the day, whizzing around on this set of wheels. They are a treasured memento for Julia but the leather is parched and cracked and the wooden wheels are riddled with holes, courtesy of some hungry woodworm. \n\nAnd antique restorer Will Kirk’s expertise is called upon when David Worssom arrives with a very old and elaborate wooden salad bowl. This unusual item was presented to David’s grandfather in the late 1800s during his service in the Boer War. The bowl was then inherited by his father and was a familiar fixture in David’s family home. It conjures vivid memories of his father and his childhood. The various segments of the bowl are falling apart, the only thing holding it together is some ornate silver fretwork. Brenton West tends to the silver while Will reassembles the puzzle.
