The Repair Shop

Series 7: Episode 22

Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.\n\nCeramics expert Kirsten Ramsay is charmed by a series of handmade pottery vegetable patch signs. Emma’s father was extremely artistic and spent their childhood making all sorts of remarkable items. He cast and painted these lovely pieces himself and used them to mark out the different sections of his impressive veg patch in their garden. Sadly, he passed away suddenly and after several years of harsh weather, the signs are cracked, faded and won’t stand the test of time. Emma is desperate to have this keepsake that represents so many of her loving fathers talents back in one piece .\n\nNext to arrive is Sally Mastroddi with a pull along wooden horse and cart toy for Will Kirk’s attention. It belonged to her late mother has been in her family for nearly one hundred years. The little wheeled toy has been enjoyed by generations of children in Sally’s extended farming family. Sally has wonderful memories of life growing up on a farm and playing with the cart, collecting conkers and giving her teddies a ride. She’d love to fulfil her mother’s wish to have it restored so that it can continue to entertain future generations of her family. \n\nAnd silversmith and football fan Brenton West is honoured to be working on an important trophy. It was presented to Anthony Kennedy’s father, Paddy, who played for Manchester United in the 1953 FA Youth Cup final. It means a huge amount to the Kennedy family as they are so proud of Paddy’s footballing career but the trophy is very tarnished and is missing several pieces of decorative detail. Brenton rises to the challenge and restores its winning shine.
