Jay Blades and the team of experts meet David who brings along two notebooks from his teenage years containing writings and drawings inspired by JRR Tolkien alongside a handful of letters from the author himself.

Dominic Chinea faces the task of repairing a vintage workbench for Rob who fondly remembers his late father using it to build him a sledge when he was a child. Evelyn and her granddaughter Keeley bring in a decrepit manicure set which they believe to have survived the Liverpool Blitz in 1941 having belonged to Evelyn's mother
