The Repair Shop

I absolutely love this programme, but sadly the producers don't seem to want to show the fantastic work that these people do. They concentrate on the stories behind the objects and the people. Although this is an important part of the programme it should be showing much more of the actual work so that we can really appreciate it. We keep on seeing things as they end up rather than how they get there. Please show more of the work as it is the skills and methods that really set this show apart.

I am able to watch this in the States as I have live feed UKTV. It's a lovely example of the best of human potential and interaction, which contrasts profoundly to a news cycle which strives to do the opposite. This should be be picked up and broadcast in America; it would be adored.

We just discovered this show on Netflix and are greatly enjoying it! I join the other voices that say that I wish there were more actual restoration shown. I know the human/background piece is important, but it could easily take more of a back seat to the work. I don't mind Jay, but I'd like to see his work, too. We will watch straight through and then maybe watch some of them again.

Watching restoration geniuses at work is a joy. Hearing the stories behind the personal treasures makes every piece priceless. Joyful, relaxing and quality TV

Smart, genuine and loveable people using their expertise to bring back new life to some of the most interesting oddities men have created and they do it with charm and wit.. careful or you may shed a happy tear
