The Repair Shop has brought this waste-conscious message to an even wider audience, cementing itself as a BBC classic of the likes of \u003ci\u003eAntiques Roadshow\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe third book concentrates on the show's much-loved experts, including woodworker and furniture restorer Will Kirk, clockmaker and mechanical wizard Steve Fletcher, silversmith Brenton West, saddler\/leatherworker Suzie Fletcher, upholsterer Sonnaz, and seamstresses Julie Tatchell \u0026amp; Amanda Middleditch - aka The Teddy Bear Ladies, with each sharing why they love their craft, followed by a narrative on two specific objects and their restoration journeys. These narratives capture the ethos of the programme by being almost Aesop's Fables-esque - e.g. The Woodworker and the Broken Toy Chest - with quotes from the recipients of restored objects dotted around. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith the focus on the artisans themselves, readers will feel as though they're stepping straight into the 'workshop of dreams'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jay Blades\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1914239644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914239649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kyle Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 7.80w x 1.30d","brand":"Jay Blades","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44059228012799,"sku":"9781914239649","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_12b3e7ba-2364-4bb2-a89b-6e66ba720122.jpg?v=1685056969","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-repair-shop-jay-blades-9781914239649","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
