Ep. 1: The Repair Shop at Christmas (2017) (2017-12-19)

A Victorian version of a jukebox called a Polyphon, that has rusted into silence, moves sisters Ann and Kathryn to tears when they hear it play the family's favourite carol for first time in decades. Meanwhile the only Christmas present received by evacuee Patricia in 1939, Betty Doll, is lovingly brought back life; while a rustic but rickety Nordic sleigh, a battered 100 year-old school Nativity, and an 18th century Madonna and Child painting all bring unique restoration challenges for team of experts. Celebrating the season of joy and giving, The Repair Shop At Christmas is the festive fairy tale that will transform broken treasures into beautiful gifts, proving that ‘make do and mend' is still a philosophy to live by.

Meanwhile, electrical whizz Mark Stuckey is tasked with breathing new life into an old film projector, bringing footage of departed loved ones sharply back into focus.
