The Repair Shop

Series 7: Episode 10

Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.\n\nArt conservator Lucia Scalisi revives an oil painting of a mining scene, created by an amateur artist in the 1960s. It is a delicate task for Lucia as she cleans away the dirty surface to reveal the stunning scene underneath. Owner Gwyn is overwhelmed when she returns to the barn to see her miner father’s artwork restored to its full glory.\n\nEmbroidery expert Sara Dennis and silversmith Brenton West join forces on a delicate wedding tiara, originally worn by a 1950s model whose granddaughter, Lydia, wants it restored for her own impending nuptials. It proves to be a mathematical puzzle to mimic the original pattern and ensure the silk, diamantes and pearls sparkle as they did 70 years ago.\n \nAnd mechanical maestro Steve Fletcher takes receipt of an early 20th-century chiming mantelpiece clock that was gifted to a loving couple on their wedding day. After 63 years together, owner Brian’s mother sadly passed away, leaving his father alone. The chiming clock then proved a lifeline for his elderly dad as his eyesight began to fail.
