Summary Jay and the team bring four treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life. There is an exciting challenge for furniture restorer Sonnaz , when she is given the opportunity to work on an iconic piece of Danish design known as an egg chair. Christine Langton and her daughter Kate deliver an armchair designed by Arne Jacobsen. Husband Maurice loved this chair and sat proudly in it throughout his life. Next to arrive is Nick Wimshurst, with a remarkable item invented by his great-great-grandfather. The instrument has been in Nick's family for over 135 years, but he has never seen it work. He is hugely proud of his forefather's invention and feels compelled to find someone to help get it up and running again. Steve draws on all his know-how, and what he remembers from his school physics lessons, to enable lightning to strike once again. It's a first for master hatter Jayesh when Ross Brown visits with his grandfather's sailor's hat. Alf was a Royal Navy stoker, working in the vessel engine rooms, and served throughout the Second World War. He had quite the tale to tell his family when he returned safely after an attack from a German U-boat and was a true hero to a young Ross. Ross is putting all his faith in Jayesh to perform a minor miracle to erase the ink, while retaining the hat's characteristic wear and tear. And John Marshall wheels in the most extraordinary bicycle for experts Tim and Dominic to work on. Known as a bucking bronco bike, it has no pedals or chain but relies on the rider bobbing up and down to power it. Needless to say, both Tim and Dom are delighted to get cracking on this unique renovation project.
