BBC One’s The Repair Shop searches for fixes in the Vale
Jay Blades and the team of experts are back in BBC One’s The Repair Shop barn, busy rescuing and restoring items their owners’ thought were beyond saving, transforming priceless pieces of family history and bringing loved, but broken treasures back to life.
Along-side their working schedule filming for the next series of the much-loved programme, the team is also searching for more items for future series.
The Repair Shop’s presenter, Jay Blades, said: “We are looking for unique items for our new series. They don’t have to be antique, it can be absolutely anything, but it must have that sentimental value and it must mean something to you and it needs repairing. We want you to get in contact because we want to get these things fixed for you.”
Ceramics expert, Kirsten Ramsay said: “In previous series we’ve fixed a whole host of items, traditional instruments, garments, books, crockery and more. So, please get in touch about your amazing items in need of some love!”
Executive Producer, Glenn Swift said: “If you’ve got anything that needs restoring, evokes wonderful memories or is a treasured family possession then get in touch – all you need to do is fill in the form on the BBC website or email us the details and we’ll do the rest.”
The Repair Shop first aired on BBC Two early evening in March 2017, eventually moving across to BBC One for Daytime.
Since March 2020 it has also aired in BBC One’s peak schedule at 8pm, following a popular Christmas special, which attracted 5.5m viewers.
The new daytime episodes broadcast earlier this year consolidated at 6.5m and a 27.4% audience share (April 2020).
The next series of The Repair Shop is due in June on BBC One primetime.
The Repair Shop team is reaching out to a wide range of communities for the future series. Please email or log on to www.bbc.co.uk/takepart for more information.
