First into the barn are Billie and her grandmother Doreen with a cherished baby doll which has lost its sheen. Doreen’s father brought the doll, called Suzy, back from naval duty where he won her as a raffle prize on board his ship. Doreen cherished the gifted toy, but unfortunately a lifetime of love has left Suzy’s mechanical eye broken and face cracked, and her hands and feet are crumbling. The Bear Ladies Amanda Tatchell and Julie Middleditch join forces with David Burville to get the treasured doll back to her beautiful best.

Next, Peter arrives with a poignant reminder of his Ukrainian heritage - a case which belonged to his father, who was taken from Ukraine in 1942 following the Nazi invasion. At 14, he was forced to work for the German war effort and was eventually liberated by the Americans and came to the UK at 20. After his dad recently passed away, the case has taken on even more significance for Peter. But the leather luggage is worn with a wobbly lid, so expert Suzie Fletcher turns investigator to identify all its issues and solve the mystery of the wobbly case.

The final visitor to the barn is Jacqui with a seized-up silver locket for the attention of goldsmith Richard Talman. The locket was given to Jacqui’s mum by her dad as a twenty-fifth wedding anniversary present. As a child, Jacqui loved the locket and would beg her mum to let her wear it for an hour or so when she came home from school. Her mum always promised the locket would be hers one day, but sadly, that day came too soon. Jacqui’s mum died very suddenly when Jacqui was just 13 years old. Thereafter, Jacqui hung onto the locket, but after an unfortunate accident in which the locket broke, landed on a pavement and was stood on by a passer-by, the beloved necklace has been broken for three decades. Richard has his work cut out to prise the heart-shaped locket apart and revive it to its former glory. Show less
