First into the Repair Shop, Sue Nunn, from Chichester hoping wood restorer Will Kirk can bring one man's pride and joy, back to its former glory. The fishing tackle box, which belonged to her late husband, is tired from decades of service and desperate for an overhaul. Sue would love her son to start fishing again, which he has felt unable to do since his dad's death. Will tackles the assignment with his usual enthusiasm….fixing the bait drawers and compartments, cleaning the rusted metal base and repainting the wooden sections. He passes the worn, vinyl covered seat to the very capable hands of upholsterer Hannah Weston-Smith, who recovers the seat pad and installs new foam padding, so the hours spent on the river bank are comfortable ones. Sue is accompanied by son Ian to pick up this rebooted fishing companion and he vows to rekindle their favourite pass time. Restorers Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch have a huge task on their hands when they care for a doll with an extraordinary story. Margaret Dyson's beloved doll, Alice, was badly damaged in 1945, when a RAF plane crash landed into her family home, tragically killing her mother. Margaret thought she'd lost Alice forever but recently, by sheer luck, she was reunited with her. However Alice remains in a terrible condition due to the accident and Margaret finds it hard to see her so damaged, as it reminds her of the trauma of losing her mother. Julie and Amanda lovingly repair the doll, piecing her body back together, rebuilding her pretty face and hair and finally sewing her a beautiful new dress. Margaret is overjoyed to see her childhood friend looking as she did in happier times. And Ian Ogilvie from Liverpool is hoping leather expert Suzie Fletcher can restore a handmade love-token of yesteryear. Ian's mother made the leather grooming kit bag for his father, as he went off to war and it's been treasured for decades. It still retains the original shaving and cologne bottles. Suzie replaces the cracked mirror, cleans and nourishes the parched leather. While Brenton spruces up the silver shaving accessories.
