Series 14: Episode 8



First through the workshop doors is Bev, bringing a local landmark that has lost its way. The dilapidated village sign from Broome in Norfolk was designed for the millennium by Bev’s dad, who was a joiner. Sadly, he passed away in 1999 and was unable to complete the job. Instead, Bev’s twin brother took on the task of finishing the sign in time for it to be unveiled by their mum at the village hall on the eve of the millennium. With the sign significantly damaged, it’s a tricky job for woodworker Will Kirk, but he unveils it to a delighted Bev, who can’t wait for it to be resurrected and take pride of place once again in the village.\n\nA rusted-up shop till is the next item to arrive, courtesy of Jas, whose parents opened a grocery shop in the late 1960s that largely catered to Coventry’s Asian community. The shop became a hub for the area and ‘an adventure’ for Jas and his siblings, who would sneak down at night to take chocolates. After a decade, the shop couldn’t compete with bigger supermarkets and closed its doors, meaning the till hasn’t been used for years. With no key, the contraption is near impossible for Steve Fletcher to prise open, but when he does, he’s rewarded with the find of handmade toy money inside. When Jas returns to discover the finding, he is transported straight back to his joyful childhood.\n\nNext to arrive is a small handmade organ crafted from cardboard and brought in by Sairah, whose grandfather made it in Basra during the First World War. Hailing from a family of organ builders, he made it out of army signal book covers whilst serving in the Royal Engineers. Fixing a handmade item is a tricky task, even for seasoned organ restorer David Burville, and after a lengthy fix, Sairah returns wondering if it will play once again.\n\nFinally, an heirloom from the golden age of cinema. Sisters Georgie and Lydia need the help of upholsterer Sonnaz Nooranvary to honour a couple who played a starring role in their lives. Their great-uncle built a cinema with his brother in Knighton, Powys, which opened in 1947 to a huge queue of people eager to watch films in their local community. Their great-aunt Enid was also involved in the business. The building was demolished in the 1990s, so the siblings never saw the cinema but were delighted to find some cinema seats stored under their great-uncle and great-aunt’s house. Sonnaz and Dom join forces not only to bring the chairs back to life but also to give the two young women a glimpse of a 1940s cinema experience they have never known.
