The team take on a fairground water can, a camel saddle and an RAF mascot teddy bear.

The team take on a fairground water can, a camel saddle and an RAF mascot teddy bear, restored as a tribute to the brave airman it belonged to.

Metal worker Dominic Chinea takes on a former fairground family’s water can. The can represents owner David’s childhood travelling around the country, but large sections of it have lost the battle with rust and it has sprung some major leaks. Dom sets about replacing the bottom panel and giving it a new lease of life, with the help of silversmith Brenton.

Master saddler Suzie Fletcher tackles a miniature camel saddle – the only memento from a childhood spent in Malaysia. This curious item has been by owner John’s side for over 60 years, but an unfortunate incident with a mischievous puppy has left it in tatters.  

And teddy bear repair duo Amanda and Julie welcome a 100-year-old RAF mascot bear called Bobby. Dressed in a replica uniform, the bear belonged to a brave airman who survived a horrific plane crash during the Second World War. His daughters, Kris and Barbara, would love to have Bobby Bear restored as a tribute to their father.
