The Repair Shop

I just wish Netflix would offer more than the last two years of it!

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.

My wife and I recently found this show on Netflix. We really love it. We love the interaction of the different restorers, and especially like Jay, Steve, Kirsten and Will. We love how they try to ensure that different objects are restored, showing the expertise of each Restorer. We love the "reveal' as each object is returned to the owner. Several times tears have been shed as the owners get back their item in first-class restored condition. What a great program. Wish something like this was on in the US, but thankful we can now watch as many programs at a time as we like. Thanks for a great idea and expert craftsmen/restorers to do the job right. I think the Weald and Downland Museum would be a great place to visit.

I can watch these all day long.

If I had to find a negative, they are not long enough. I could watch the amazing workmanship (and workwomanship) for hours on end. Maybe we could have an extended online version?

Someone mentioned costs on here.

Materials = Peanuts

Experts = Worth every penny

The look on peoples face = Priceless

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.
