Episode 38
Jay Blades and the team take on a Victorian railway lamp, a musical jewellery box and a Brownie toadstool.
Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.
Woodwork expert Will Kirk is enchanted by a musical jewellery box that miraculously survived a devastating house fire. Pamela Lamb from Devon cherishes this memento, as it belonged to her elder sister Vera, who sadly passed away as a teenager. Pamela still remembers happy times when they would play with the box, but the fire scarred the pretty painted box and the musical mechanism no longer works.
A team effort is called for to restore a piece of Victorian railway history. Alan Norley has brought in a lamp that served his grandfather and father on the railways. The lamp symbolises his childhood growing up in a family of proud railwaymen, and he hopes that Steve Fletcher can get it shining bright once more, restoring all those happy memories.
Restorers Susie Fletcher, Will Kirk and Kirsten Ramsay also join forces to revive a unique item delivered by Girl Guide leader Anne Wheway. Anne’s troop are the proud custodians of a large, wooden-framed, canvas-covered toadstool, which is used for Brownie ceremonies. Not much is known about this crumbling curiosity, but Anne and many little girls would love the team to give it some tender loving care.
