Vintage musical instrument expert Pete Woods takes on a tarnished, dented saxophone that once played to lift people's spirits during the Blitz, but has not made a sound in more than 40 years. Silversmith Brenton West's skills are tested when he is handed an 80-year-old brass kettle in desperate need of professional attention. Saddler Suzie Fletcher restores a leather shaving mirror used by troops in the trenches of the First World War, and metal-worker Dominic Chinea sharpens up his act with a vintage carpenter's fret saw that has seen better days

The Repair Shop airs on RTE One at 3:50 PM, Monday 16 September. (Subtitles.)
