Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life.

Steve O鈥橠onnell from Galway in Ireland has a much-loved childhood gift that requires the mechanical expertise of Steve Fletcher. The bus conductor's ticket machine belonged to his uncle, and Steve was fascinated by it as a boy, playing bus conductors during visits to his uncle's house, charging his family to sit on the sofa! This is a first for Steve Fletcher, and he is eager to open it up and see how it works.

A team effort is called for when Emma Sadek from London arrives at the barn with a Victorian automaton. She is hoping organ restorer and vintage toy enthusiast David Burville can give this long-retired musical curiosity - a mechanical pianist doll - the chance of an encore. And ceramics expert Kirsten Ramsay finds herself with a rather poignant project when former world kick-boxing champion Helen Bannan brings in her prized trophy, which has been badly damaged in a recent house fire.
