Grandad's Wind-Powered Noah's Ark Spins Again | The Repair Shop UK | S7 E12

A rooftop marvel from childhood roars back to life. Watch Will and Dom tackle a wind-powered Noah's Ark whose animals once bobbed in and out to a hypnotic rhythm. Inside the barn, a 1960s leather handbag known as the Bag of Hopes and Dreams tests Susie’s skill as she reinforces torn lacing holes and threads more than 500 stitches to preserve a mother’s memory without erasing its life. Then Julie and Amanda face Mary Lynn, the wartime doll a father brought home after years as a POW; missing fingers, cracked features, and a fragile story demand a delicate rebuild, a perfect blue gaze, and ringlets that feel just right. Out in the yard, a bent drive shaft, rebuilt propeller blades, and a red roof hint at a reveal Gordon hopes will lift his mum Barbara’s spirits and honor his late brother Derek. Step into the workshop where heirlooms carry families forward. The moments you don’t expect are the ones you’ll remember. Watch now to see what they become.
