First to pay a visit to the barn, and put their trust in master cobbler Dean, are Hayley Fellows and her mother Wendy. They have brought in a pair of speedway racing boots that evoke bittersweet memories. The boots belonged to Mike, who they recently lost to cancer. Having them restored was on his bucket list, and the women are determined to honour that final request. Organ restorer David faces a mammoth task when he takes on a 1960s electric organ. It belonged to Jonny Green's dad. Jonny's dad could never bear to part with it and always intended to have it fixed up. Fortunately, David is well known for his patience and perseverance, and Mark is on hand to mend the dated electrics. Suzanne Payne is hopeful that horologist Steve and wood restorer Will can help her to complete a true labour of love for three men in her family. Her father loved tinkering with clocks. He intended to gift the finished clock to Suzanne's father-in-law, but sadly both men passed away before its completion. The project was then taken on by Suzanne's husband Ian, who began work on a wooden housing. Tragically, Ian passed away several years ago. And Jasmine Asher brings her grandfather's diary and writing slate for the attention of Brenton and expert bookbinder Chris. Her grandfather was a political activist in India and lived a most interesting life. It's the only record they have of his writing and is in serious risk of perishing completely, but Chris is confident he can preserve it. Brenton gladly takes on the tarnished, scratched aluminium writing slate, which Jasmine's grandfather would lean on to document his life. Written by Steve Crook See less
