The Repair Shop
Season 5 Episode 14 - Smuggler's Telescope
The team takes on a tippling stick thought to have belonged to George V, a nearly 200-year-old telescope that needs the eye of optics expert Richard Biggs, and a Victorian high chair that transforms into a rocking chair. Brenton makes a start on the tippling stick with some help from Will to apply a bit of polish. Brenton then makes a silver quaffing pot to hold a dram of the whisky that the tippling stick holds. Will then focuses on the high chair that transforms into a rocking chair. After making a new top piece for the missing back he enlists the help of Dom to tidy up the transforming mechanism and Suzie who makes a new padding for the back and seat. Meanwhile Richard starts work on the old smuggler's telescope with some help either some soldering by Steve.
