本集简介

First into the barn are Keith and his daughter Kirsty, who have brought a cleverly designed accessory that requires the skills of resident horologist Steve Fletcher. Keith's father Desmond went blind in his thirties due to a hereditary disease that runs in the family called Stickler syndrome. Desmond never let his condition stop him and retrained in his field so he could continue his career in engineering and welding after becoming blind. Upon retirement, after 21 years of loyal service, Desmond was presented with a personally engraved braille watch from his company and wore it every day for over 30 years. Steve takes on a new challenge with the watch, making a hinged case so that the glass top can be opened, and the wearer can feel the braille dial to tell the time. Keith and Kirsty want to repair the watch in honour of Desmond's inspiring resilience and to pass it onto Keith's granddaughter and Kirsty's daughter Phoebe, who is also blind.

Next in are brother and sister Zaff and Nasari, with an item holding long-buried memories of their family's life in Uganda. The siblings need help from electrical expert Mark Stuckey with their father's vintage projector, which was used to showcase family videos. When their family was forced to flee the country in 1972, Zaff and Nasari's father brought the precious projector with them to Rochdale, where they eventually rebuilt their lives. After almost half a century of being unused, Zaff and Nasari hope to restore the projector to working condition. Allowing them to relive never-before-seen treasured memories of their childhood in Uganda.

Woodworker Will Kirk welcomes Zoe Blake-James and her grandmother Rowan, with a family heirloom that has been passed down four generations of women in the Blake-James family, making it over 130 years old. The vintage fire screen originally belonged to Rowan's grandmother, and she has fond childhood memories of it being used in the family living room. Zoë is a student of Victorian literature and has a great passion for researching this era and her family's history. The pair would love to preserve the fire screen for future generations. Will gets cracking with the wooden frame and enlists the help of textiles conservationist Rebecca Bissonnet to tackle the delicate embroidered screen.

The final pair to walk through the barn doors are celebrated veteran singer-songwriter Ralph McTell and his friend Matthew. They need the expertise of leather expert Suzie Fletcher to help repair a tattered old toy that has been earmarked for a revival. Ralph was involved in a children's programme called Alphabet Zoo in the 80s, where he wrote a song for every letter of the alphabet. A friend gave him the leather kangaroo as a gift to celebrate the song Kenny The Kangaroo. As a result, Kenny appeared on stage with Ralph at venues like the Royal Festival Hall. Ralph met Matthew at his local pub. As well as working at the pub, Matthew also works with children with special needs doing music therapy, where he began using Ralph's songs in his class. The children were captivated by the song Kenny The Kangaroo. Ralph was moved by this and offered to donate his leather friend to the school, but it cannot be enjoyed by the children in its current condition. Suzie has her work cut out in repairing this 70s stuffed toy from down under, whose once robust leather is now cracked and split. When the pair return, they are delighted to see Suzie has been able to get Kenny leaping back into action again, so Matthew can use him in his therapy sessions with the children.

First into the barn is Zelda, with her most precious possession, a ring bought by her father on a day out together when she was a teenager. But the ring looks nothing like it originally did when it had an onyx stone as the centrepiece with the letter p on top. Unfortunately, the stone fell out. Zelda's stepmum had it fixed, but the black onyx was replaced by a purple amethyst which, though beautiful, isn't the ring Zelda remembers. Now that her dad has passed away, Zelda is keen to get it back to its original best.

It's a challenging fix for master goldsmith Richard Talman, and he enlists the help of Sonnaz Nooranvary to drip water while he drills into the onyx stone. The intricate repair work does the job, and Zelda is transported to her childhood when the cloth comes off.

Next, a severely cracked mechanical doll needs the expert skills of toy restorers Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch. For Ian, the doll is a painful reminder of his sister Denise, who he lost in a road traffic accident, aged just 24. After she died, his parents stored the doll in the loft, and Ian has only recently rediscovered it. While Julie and Amanda crack on with filling the doll's fractures, creating new digits for her missing fingers and making a new outfit, mechanical whiz David Burville gets her walking and moving her head again. When Ian sees the newly restored doll, he can't believe the transformation.

The third visitor is Kevin, with a 1920s banner that has seen better days. The large textile was owned by the Milburn Toffs Jazz Band, who along with other groups used to take part in carnivals around the north east of England. The Toffs came from a working-class area but dressed ironically in posh top hats and tails. At the centre of the banner is a little boy – Kevin's father as a young child, the mascot of the band. Art conservator Lucia Scalisi and textile conservator Rebecca Bissonnet join forces to make the banner parade ready once again.

The barn's final visitor is Dylan, with a wooden whirligig – a garden ornament that spins in the wind – made by his beloved grandfather. The whirligig was damaged in a storm and requires the skills of woodworker Will Kirk. Dylan's grandfather was a great support to Dylan as he learned to live with MDP syndrome and to gradually grow in confidence. Dylan has received an award for spreading positivity on social media and attributes his grandad to helping him ‘have a voice'. The whirligig is a fun reminder of how his grandad wanted to bring a smile to his face. It's a labour of love for Will to get the precious ornament spinning again in time for Dylan's return.

Entering through the barn doors first are siblings Michelle and Paul along with their mum, Ann. They have an unfinished family project that needs the help of metalworker Dominic Chinea and electrical expert Mark Stuckey. Michelle and Paul's petrolhead dad built them a full working children's jeep that they used to drive to and from school and down to the local park, creating endless cherished memories. When Paul had his son, Adam, it was dad Brian's wish to upgrade and revitalise the car for his grandson and future grandchildren. Sadly, Brian passed away before he could complete his dream. Mark and Dom now have the task of finishing what Brian started, getting this vehicle roadworthy once more before the family return with Adam, who's eager to get behind the wheel.

Next up, Annette from Northern Ireland is calling upon the skill set of soft toy restorers Amanda and Julie to bring back a precious piece of her childhood. Anette grew up in Northern Ireland around the time that the Troubles started, a frightening period to live through as a child. Many organisations who were trying to foster peace started initiatives where children from both sides went abroad and spent time with a host family to escape the conflict. Annette on her trip was given a Dutch doll from her host family that became a symbol of a happy and peaceful time. However, years of wear and tear have left the doll needing a lot of TLC. After enlisting the help of woodworker Will to carve her some new clogs, Amanda and Julie find her lost eyes inside her head and get her looking as beautiful as Annette remembers.

Rebecca Davis arrives at the workshop hoping master hatter Jayesh can work his magic on an iconic hat that hails all the way from Egypt. As a young girl, Rebecca had a fascination with Tommy Cooper and his infamous fez. On a trip back to Egypt visiting family, Rebecca's stepfather brought her an authentic fez, which she treasured. Jayesh has the tricky task of restoring the beloved hat. After addressing the moth-eaten holes and staining, he must reinstate the iconic tassel before handing it back to an excited Rebecca.

Lastly, it's a first for Kirsten as she restores a sculpture made out of soap, carved in a prisoner-of-war camp in Thailand during WWII. Chris Cooke from Devon is hoping ceramics expert Kirsten can revive this unusual heirloom. Chris's grandfather Fred was in the Manchester Regiment and was posted to Singapore, but when the Japanese invaded, he was sent to Thailand as a prisoner of war. One of his campmates there carved a likeness of Chris's grandfather out of soap, which Fred brought back with him to the UK when the war ended. It has been since passed down to Chris. Kirsten has her work cut out, having never repaired a bar of soap in her career, and once she has worked out a replacement for the missing soap parts, she has the delicate task of resculpting Fred. Once finished, an emotional Chris is reunited with this important piece of his family history.
