BBC One - The Repair Shop, Series 11, Episode 29

A solo mum brings her cherished family crib to be lovingly restored for her baby.

A solo mum has her cherished family crib restored for her newborn baby’s bedtime, and a child’s pogo stick, steeped in emotion and years of rust, is dramatically transformed.

New dad Will Kirk is entrusted with the restoration of a cherished family crib belonging to solo mum Nikki. Both Nikki and her two older brothers slept in the 1970s crib as babies. Now Nikki’s new arrival, Lilian, has left her longing for a revamp of the tired, old baby’s bed. It’s a labour of love for Will, who’s delighted to see little Lilian swinging in her revamped cradle for the first time.

Daniel from the Isle of Wight is hoping that metal man Dominic Chinea can restore a rusted pogo stick that’s lost its spring. The toy was bought by Daniel when he was just a boy for his beloved mother to help her conjure up memories of her own childhood. But her tragic early death meant the toy took on great significance for Daniel. Dom sets to work on this important restoration to create a mechanically sound, visually stunning transformation for a delighted Daniel.

The final visitor to the barn is Jane from South Ayrshire, with a book containing recipes that belonged to her late grandmother. The cookbook was gifted to Jane 40 years ago but it’s now falling apart. Bookbinder Chris Shaw needs to hold it all together so that the tome can continue its next chapter.
