The Repair Shop
Season 15 Episode 4
Painting conservator Lucia Scalisi revives a remarkable but badly bent and buckled portrait of Captain William Marshall, who risked his life to rescue over a hundred shipwrecked Irish emigrants left stranded on an iceberg. Brenton West repairs a precious boxing trophy from the 1950s, Will Kirk restores a well-travelled Jamaican trunk - with help from bookbinder Chris Shaw and textiles conservator Rebecca Bissonet - and Kirsten Ramsay faces the ultimate 3D jigsaw as she is handed a plaster bust that shattered to pieces in an accident
The Repair Shop airs on BBC One Oxfordshire at 8:00 PM, Wednesday 5 November. (Subtitles, new, audio description.)
