BBC One - The Repair Shop, Series 7, Episode 31

The team restores a leather chair, a vintage letterpress and a mechanical toy plane.

The team restores a dearly loved but dilapidated leather chair, a vintage letterpress and a mechanical toy plane that’s been grounded for 50 years.

Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.

Leather expert Suzie Fletcher and furniture restorer Will Kirk join forces to revive a dilapidated strap chair that’s seen better days. The chair serves as a precious reminder of a much-missed husband and father. It’s a meticulous mend but when mother and daughter Jamila and Aaliya set eyes on their revamped chair the memories come flooding back.

Letterpress owner Kitt Moss is hoping Dominic Chinea can rejuvenate her grandfather’s vintage printing machine so she can use it to make invitations for her forthcoming wedding. Dom’s love of metal means he’s in his element as he gets the precious press printing once again.

And mechanical maestro Steve Fletcher faces a tricky fix on a motorised toy war plane that’s been grounded for over fifty years.
