Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.\n\nSoft toy restorers Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch are entrusted to revive a worn-out rabbit belonging to Liz Warne. As a baby Liz suffered from a lung condition which left doctors telling her parents she wouldn’t survive. Hospitalised for a long time, they could only give little Liz a gift that could be sterilised. Bundo quickly became a lifeline for Liz, one that she has clung to ever since. Now completely threadbare, she’s determined to make him robust enough to face the future. \n\nDrum expert Pete Woods is tasked with reviving a battered bass drum belonging to the Barrow-in-Furness Sea Cadets. The drum should be the beating heart of the band, but it is in dire need of resuscitation. As Pete gets to work, he discovers some of his own history wrapped up in the old bass drum. With a little help from Dominic Chinea, the beating heart bass is restored to life. \n\nAnd furniture restorer Will Kirk works wonders on a wooden church pew that has witnessed all the major events in a family’s life. Owner Tracey has covered it in brown fence paint, but careful conservation from Will brings out the beauty of the original wood and triggers Tracey’s memories of her late father and brother.
