BBC Two - Saved and Remade, Series 1, Episode 20

A Swiss clock and a collection of skateboards are transformed.

A Swiss clock that caused a honeymooning couple’s first argument 40 years ago and a collection of skateboards in need of a new purpose are among the radical transformations.

40 years ago, David and Marion bought a Swiss clock as a souvenir on their honeymoon. Its price led to their first argument, and over the years Marion has been tempted to throw it out, as it is no longer used. But they would like it to become something practical that would remind them of a special time together. Metal sculptor Leigh and carpentry expert Shelley offer rival designs for them to choose between: a transformation into a stunning piece of furniture or an artwork to celebrate their ruby anniversary.

Kierhardy cruises into the workshop in his campervan – not for its transformation but because inside it are several old skateboards. Kierhardy is passionate about skateboarding and combines it with youth work in his community. Metals expert Titch has a radical idea for the skateboards that he hopes will impress everyone down at the skatepark.

And Shelley has a special project of her own to work on. The woodwork specialist’s wife Mags lost her mum recently, and Shelley wants to do something that will give them both something to remember her by. Two old vintage cameras that belonged to Mags’s mum are no longer used, but they captured a lifetime of travels and adventures. Shelley designs beautiful pieces of art that bring the cameras back into focus.
