Description: The Repair Shop Series 4: Episode 16
Radio expert Mark Stuckey has a job on his hands, repairing a 1930s transistor radio brought into the Repair Shop by David Hill from Brecon.
The radio was given to David’s father by an army officer on the beaches at Dunkirk during the Second World War, and after being successfully shepherded through the bullets and the crashing waves to safety, it became the Hill family’s pride and joy. But the 75 subsequent years have not been kind, with the vintage transistor battered and broken both inside and out, and it takes all Mark’s years of experience to get it playing once again.
Horologist Steve Fletcher leads a team restoration of an old grandfather clock with many precious memories for its owner, Christine, who is unaware that her best friend Karen has contacted the Repair Shop to have it repaired. With Steve drafting in specialist help from dial restorer Cindy Welland and wood expert Will Kirk, the clock is finally ready to be returned to an unsuspecting Christine - and her reaction leaves not a dry eye in the house.
And master saddler Susie Fletcher takes on the repair of a battered leather mahjong case with huge sentimental value to its owner, Lindsay, whose mother bought it with her as a child and who has lovingly treasured it ever since.
