The Repair Shop's Jay Blades bows head and wipes away tears after restoration
The Repair Shop has become a firm favourite with fans and in the latest classic episode, the experts restored several unique items in the iconic barn.
The Repair Shop: Jay Blades is emotional during reveal
The Repair Shop experts Jay Blades and Steve Fletcher struggled to hold back the tears after a couple broke down following a precious restoration of a musical jewellery box that was more than 50 years old. Jay bowed his head following Bernadette's reaction to the iconic repair.
Before the big reveal, Barry presented Steve and Jay with the jewellery box he bought for his wife Bernadette while he was in Malaysia with the British Army more than 50 years ago.
As Jay asked what the couple had brought with them to the barn, Barry explained: "It's a musical box and it's in a bad way."
Discussing where the item came from, he said that Bernadette used to write to him when he was fighting in the war and he bought the musical box to send to her, however, when it arrived it was broken.
"It was in a mess and she has never ever seen it working, 58 years, never seen it working," Barry went on.

"When you lift this up, the lights are meant to flash and the wheel goes around."
Bernadette echoed what her husband said and explained when the box arrived she could hear the music but nothing else worked.
"Why did you keep it?" Jay asked. "It was broken...why did you keep it?"
Bernadette simply replied: "You don't throw something away that is sent by somebody you love."

Turning to Steve, the expert said: "I really hope I can get this working because I can see how much it means to you."
Steve got to work, and when it came to the big reveal, the expert didn't let Barry and Bernadette down.
As Barry lifted the cloth covering the musical box, his wife got emotional.
"It has got handles on now," she said choking back tears.
"Oh my god," Barry said as he lifted the lid of the box.
"Isn't it lovely?" his wife went on as she planted a kiss on Barry's cheek.
Steve had tears in his eyes and Jay bowed his head as Barry admitted: "I am shaking."
As Bernadette went to praise the duo for restoring her beloved musical box, Jay wiped a tear from his eye.
