The Repair Shop

Season 7 Episode 8: Sparkling Chandelier

Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life. Electrics expert Mark Stuckey and silversmith Brenton West join forces to repair a much-loved, sparkling chandelier that once took pride of place in a council house. Owner Suzanne's mum Pat worked as a cleaner for a wealthy couple who gifted her the cherished chandelier. Furniture restorer Will Kirk is presented with a damaged mother-of-pearl table, badly burned after a hot pan was mistakenly placed on its surface. Stuart's treasured heirloom originally belonged to his grandmother and was damaged by his father as he grew ill. And mechanical maestro Steve Fletcher turns his attention to a broken toy airplane that doubles up as a memento of a lost childhood in Iraq. The runway plane belongs to Mae, who received it as a child. Now her daughter Serena is hoping it can be fixed so that her mum can relive the childhood and country she left behind.
