    "Freshly dead, not 30 years dead." Another iconic Repair Shop quote.
  • I'm literally in tears watching Dame Judi becoming quietly emotional about her husband, Michael. And then the moment when she held the watch again and saw Michael's initials engraved on it. She was completely overwhelmed and I so just wanted to hug her.

    Dame Judy is a favorite of mine! I Just love her…….her voice is so rich and round. I could listen her all day.
  • @kozmikhannah
    I love the action that Dame Judi put the watch next to her ear and listened to its tickling.
  • Dame Judy Dench is absolutely an international treasure. We love & respect her in many places across the world.

    Watching her realize her husband’s watch is alive again was so touching! So happy for her ! Wonderful job done !
  • @annemarie9980
    Judy Dench so humble and deeply sincere I love her 💖and the chimp a treasure 🌟
  • So much of what is good about Britain: a love of the crafts, tradition, beauty, form, family, community, history, culture and the arts, humour, warmth and a unique aesthetic with a sometimes wonderfully eccentric design
  • I love dame Judi. Not only a fabulous actor but one of the funniest delightful people on earth.
  • I never realized that have something that makes a steady sound like a heartbeat from a loved one is such a special reminder of that person... I'm in tears just watching her looking at it and zone out into memories... ❤️Judi Dench

    I love watching all the craftsmen and women, but I think I am most fascinated with Steve and all the clocks, watches and toys. Amazing!
  • What a pleasure this show is! I am enraged with Netflix removing it! Thank you for uploading!
  • @mattWallJsy
    A real treasure for a real treasure! What could be more appropriate. 😊

    I live in New Zealand and I can't wait for 7:30pm on Friday nights, when my favourite program is on. You guessed it: The Repair shop. The magic that you guys create is epic. Would it be "cheeky" to ask you, if you could repair a human body? Had a lot of wear and tear throughout the years. No body parts are missing, but could do with some tender loving care to rejuvenate this work of art. Suzie can take care of the skin (leathery), Steve can re-set the old heart. The Girls can repopulate what was a hairy scalp. Let me know if you're willing to take the challenge. Thanking you in anticipation.

    It was lovely to see this especially Dame Judi, one of my all time favourite actors and of course the guys from The Repair Shop. Well done everyone x
  • Winnie Wallace... The Repair Shop is one of those rare shows that give you complete enjoyment. I love everything about it. Jay and his team are exceptional, nothing seems to faze them.
