Default Re: BBC TV: The Repair Shop

I have to admit that the electric clock (and to a lesser extent the earlier pillar telephone) were low points for me, but I generally agree with Phil that it is, on the whole, well worth watching, despite its shortcomings. The "clock man" would probably do better sticking to his area of expertise in clockwork mechanisms.

The general ethos that items can be worth repairing/restoring - and not just for profit motives - is something that should be applauded.
