In the repair shop today, three cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life. Art conservator Lucia Scalisi rescues a painting that has been in Patricia and Ivor Sansom's family for decades and holds many special memories of a lifelong love story. Ceramicist Kirsten Ramsay reunites the broken pieces of a beloved painted plaque that was dropped and shattered over 45 years ago. And furniture restorers Will Kirk and Jay Blades bring a Japanese lacquered jewellery box that had suffered in the hands of burglars back from the brink.
