First in the barn is Abid Shah, with a challenge for one of the newest experts, textile and clothing specialist Rebecca Bissonnet. He's brought in a handmade, embroidered ceremonial coat from 19th-century India, worn by his great-grandfather, Sultan Mohammad Shah, at official occasions. The coat was passed to his grandparents and came into Abid's mother's possession after the partition of India in 1948, when he and his parents made the perilous journey to Pakistan while his grandparents stayed in India. For Abid, it represents a simpler time in India, before partition. His longed-for wish is to return the coat to its best, preserving his connection with his great-grandfather and ensuring its survival for future generations. 

Next, with a treasured reminder of a childhood lived in the fast lane, are siblings Becky Roberts and Al Richards. They're hoping vintage bike enthusiast Dominic Chinea will be able to rebuild and restore their homemade children's motorbike, made from scratch by their dad, Derek, in 1965. An avid motocross rider, Derek built the bike for Al when he turned five, and it began a lifelong love of motocross for all the family. It ultimately led to Becky meeting her husband, Tommy, who sadly passed away two years ago. Becky would like the bike restored to its former glory as a fitting tribute to their dad, her late husband, and as a thank you to her brother Al for being by her side throughout it all. 

Next to arrive is Charlotte Bray, with a vintage suede handbag for the attention of leather expert Suzie Fletcher. The bag was bought on a trip of a lifetime holiday to New York that Charlotte and her two brothers were taken on by their mum, Jane. It reminds Charlotte of the hard work and determination of her single mum, who worked very hard to save the money for the trip and put her three children's needs ahead of her own. 

A well-loved accessory, the bag accompanied Charlotte on many nights out in her teens but got damaged one night and has since been gathering dust in a box. Charlotte would like the vintage handbag revived as a tribute to her mum, who sadly passed away from a brain tumour last year at home, with her three children surrounding her. 

Next is Ron Martin from Dorset with a box of tricks for woodwork wizard Will Kirk. Ron's magic box is a ‘sliding die' trick. It was made by his dad, Edward, ‘Teddy', in the early 1960s when Ron began to show interest in magic as a young boy. The trick box ignited a passion for magic in Ron, who went on to become a redcoat at Butlin's and enjoyed a successful career in the entertainment industry. Now scratched and broken, Ron's been unable to use the magic box trick for years. Will sets to work to make the box as good as new again, becoming a fitting tribute to Ron's father, who kick-started Ron's love for magic, all those years ago.

First in the barn is Christian Skelton with a 1975 film projector, an ode to the halcyon days of cinema and the forgotten art of the film projectionist. The 250kg broken behemoth was given to Christian by his friend, a retired projectionist, and the plan is to get it working again and give the projector pride of place in a charity restoration project for a 110-year-old cinema, the Selsey Pavilion. The projector presents vintage electronics expert and cinephile Mark Stuckey with his dream challenge. He sets to work to see if he can breathe new life into this golden oldie. 

Next, with a challenge for jeweller Richard Talman, is Charlotte Wakely. The lightning-bolt earrings are a precious memento of her much-missed mum Barbara and encapsulate everything that reminds Charlotte of her – fun-loving, rock n' roll, caring and generous. When Charlotte discovered the earrings amongst her mum's possessions after she sadly passed away from ovarian cancer, they had seen better days and she resolved to make them sparkle again. With a 9-carat gold surround and a black plastic 3D interior, the earrings present a particular challenge for Richard, who must come up with a creative solution to make these precious mementos of a fun-loving mum wearable again. 

The next restoration falls to Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch, also known as The Bear Ladies. Pip Martin from Northampton arrives with a 1930s doll called Annabelle that belonged to her great aunt Eileen. Annabelle was originally Eileen's doll when she was a child but, as an adult, great aunt Eileen was first a nanny and then went on to foster over 50 babies and young children. All the children in Eileen's care would play with the doll that would also stay in the cot, watching over the very youngest of her charges. After Eileen died, the doll came to Pip but was damaged during a house move. Annabelle's head is completely detached from her body, her neck is in pieces, and she has no hair. Amanda and Julie set to work to bring Annabelle back to her original condition, with her head intact. They also make a new set of clothes that are in keeping with what she would have worn back when Eileen was first given the doll as a toddler. 

Last in the barn is Tony Jhalli with a musical instrument of personal, cultural, and religious significance. Tony's dhol drum was given to him by his father, a popular bhangra musician, at the age of 15. Once Tony had mastered the skill of playing, he made a career out of music by performing and teaching others how to play. Over the years, this original dhol drum has been damaged through use by younger members of the family and can no longer be played. It's over to musical maestro Pete Woods, to see if he can return the rhythm to this traditional Indian family treasure.
